HMC Connections was founded in 1978 by volunteers from a number of local cultural groups who wanted to create a welcoming community for newcomers and refugees. We started our work under the Oakville Social Planning Council and became incorporated in June 1980 under the name Oakville Multicultural Council. In 1998 we changed our name to the Halton Multicultural Council as we were serving the whole of Halton. We now brand as HMC Connections with offices across Halton. HMC Connections helps newcomers settle and integrate into a welcoming and inclusive community. One Community for All.
