Everyone at ICA International is working on developing a presence in Montreal -
Mike has been liaising with Montreal International to organize the office
launch, at which many ICAs will be represented. Jane has been contacting local
organizations who might be interested in supporting the training program, and
Sarah has met with local organizations who will host members from national ICAs
in work placements during the training program. Katie has found a car rental

The entire team has reached out
to families in Montreal and we now have eager and friendly hosts to orient
