from Make Prince Rupert Home

The local initiative designed to recruit new residents to the community is making for a Spring push with a review of some of the highlights of life on the North Coast.

Make Prince Rupert Home is putting the accent on Spring and Summer activities as part of their ongoing efforts to attract new residents and fill a number of employment opportunities that need applicants.

The focus one that highlights the natural elements of the community and some of the social activities that make for community on the North Coast.

From the patios of the local pubs to the return of Seafest, the organization is putting the full experience on view for would be residents.

Included in the preview of what newcomers may find is the network of trails in place and the work of the Prince Rupert Garden Club.

The April information flow also features a short survey for those considering Prince Rupert as a home.

Questions include field of work that respondents may be looking for, particular job skills they may have for the community, as well as what hobbies and interests that they may have.

Towards those potential jobs, the website home features a Job Bank for candidates to review, as well as portal for Employers to submit their job opportunities for consideration.

The initiative launched in February of 2021, it is joint venture of the City of Prince Rupert, Community Futures of the Pacific Northwest and the Prince Rupert Port Authority, along with its partners at DP World, Ridley Terminals and RayMont Logistics.

The emphasis has been on social media and advertising to spread the word of what Prince Rupert has to offer, with a variety of information sharing resources put to use to raise the profile of the community.

So far, there has been no update on how the organizers view the progress of the program, or what they may have learned from it since its launch one year ago.
