As part of our initiatives to welcome and support the arrival of Syrian refugees to the province, CUPE Saskatchewan is inviting CUPE members and Saskatchewan residents to take up the call for English tutors in the four cities in which newcomers are being resettled: Moose Jaw, Prince Albert, Regina, and Saskatoon.

The Syrian refugee crisis is the largest refugee crisis since World War Two and this is a unique opportunity for our diverse members and all Saskatchewan residents to make connections and to make a difference in our communities. The following table lists the principal organizations and contact information for tutoring initiatives for Syrian refugees in Saskatchewan.
