RIAC is a not-for-profit, non-sectarian, charitable organization established to answer an ongoing need to support refugees, immigrants, and other Canadians of diverse origins in making Newfoundland and Labrador their home, and to raise awareness of refugee and immigrant issues.

Our Primary objective is to help refugees and immigrants become productive members of our society. We are building:

-Responsible: We encourage socially responsible decision making and accountability from our members and ourselves.
-Informed: Information is a key that opens many doors. We strive to provide our members with the tools they need to build a bright and secure future.
-Accepting: Building accepting communities is a crucial part of our mandate. We work tirelessly to foster diversity, respect and create awareness of pertinent issues.
-Communities: We support our members by collaborating with local organisations in the community and work to create an inclusive, productive environment.

VISION STATEMENT:
To create a community that is inclusive and free of prejudice; that celebrates the diversity of its population; and that supports the rights of all people to enjoy freedom from persecution, danger and oppression.

MISSION STATEMENT:
To enable and empower people of diverse origins in making Newfoundland and Labrador their home; and to enrich the province by facilitating cultural sharing across communities, sectors and institutions.
