Transition to living program

Where We First Stand Transition Camp is a program for first-year Indigenous students who are relocating to Winnipeg to attend the University of Manitoba for the Fall 2024 term. This program is meant to provide support to students throughout their transition to living in Winnipeg to attend post-secondary at UM.

Where We First Stand Transition Camp is a week-long summer camp program taking place from July 21-27, 2024. Students will have the opportunity to live on campus and become familiarized with the services, supports, and Indigenous community campus before they start classes in September. They will also gain valuable skills for living in the city, such as living independently, adjusting to new transportation methods, and creating a monthly budget.
