A free online information session presented by YMCA Immigrant and Settlement Services

Join us this summer to learn about different career pathways in agricultural, tourism, Hamilton Fire Department, and skilled trades. All sessions are free.

Participants will have the opportunity to learn about time management strategies to balance social activities, academic deadlines and personal commitments.

In this workshop, participants will be able to track their progress by applying the SMARTER technique. Individuals will look into exploring metrics data to track improvement over time and make realistic decisions. They will discover together common barriers of goal achievement and strategies to overcome challenges.

Reconnect with friends, enjoy the outdoors, eat healthy, delicious meals and be physically active at this wellness-themed weekend retreat.

We’re proud to announce that Mark Brand—award-winning social entrepreneur, restaurateur, and advocate for community-driven change—will be the 2026 YMCA Peace Medal Breakfast speaker.
