Welcome to the South Okanagan
Immigrant & Community Services

(also known as Penticton & District Multicultural Society)

The South Okanagan Immigrant & Community Services is dedicated to building a community based upon mutual respect and full participation from all people of all backgrounds through education, advocacy, and community programs.

SOICS is a part of the Penticton and District Multicultural Society which is a registered, non-profit organization that has been serving the South Okanagan (from Summerland to Osoyoos) since 1976.

SOICS focuses on the delivery of unique settlement and adaptation programs; one of which is the Welcoming and Inclusive Communities Toolkit. This toolkit includes a resource guide for Employers wanting to hire immigrant workers and a resource guide for welcoming and supporting immigrants living in the South Okanagan and Similkameen area.
