The Brantford Immigration Partnership (BIP) is a dedicated group of community partners who are working to ensure that the City of Brantford continues to be a welcoming and inclusive community for all.
The BIP’s overall goal is to see that all immigrants to our community feel a sense of belonging and are able to succeed and participate in the economic, social, civic, and cultural growth of our city.

Inclusive Community Plan
In June 2023, Brantford City Council unanimously adopted the Inclusive Community Plan, which was endorsed by over 30 community organizations, and is based on three guiding principles: Learn from Each Other, Stand up for Each Other, and Celebrate Each Other. The Inclusive Community Plan was developed in partnership with the Wilfrid Laurier University School of Social Work, and represents the input and feedback from a wide range of community stakeholders and subject matter experts.
