Purpose of LINC Connector
The purpose of LINC’s Connector program is to be a trusted resource and support for those new to the community so that those who decide to make the Lehigh Valley, PA home feel welcome, get rooted, and thrive.
Our Connectors:
- Introduce newcomers to people in the community
- Invite newcomers to events and activities that they might enjoy
- Network newcomers with resources and support that make them feel at home
Who Can Be a LINC Connector?
Anyone familiar with and involved in the Lehigh Valley can be a LINC Connector. Connectors are volunteers who are enthusiastic about using their knowledge of the community to help others feel welcomed and to foster a sense of belonging.
Every Connector has completed a background check, become a certified Lehigh Valley Ambassador, and received training on how to make newcomers to the community feel welcome and supported. Connectors are responsible for helping clients and/or their family members settle into the area by leveraging their own experiences and existing connections.
Activities between Connectors and new members of the community usually include:
- Meeting for coffee or a meal
- Invitations to popular social events or community activities
- Personal introductions to friends, neighbors, or colleagues who share an interest or passion
- Recommending resources in the community that you or others have found helpful
