“The Seattle Welcome Day is the perfect way to start your Seattle community! – Welcome Day Participant

Join us for Seattle’s Welcome Day—an event for every newcomer or resident ready for a fresh start. The day is designed to provide the tools you need to create your best socially connected life in the Seattle area:

• Meet other newcomers and long-time residents from your neighborhood and across the region who are looking to connect.
• Build a personalized action plan for your connected life in Seattle with the support of science-based prompts and professional facilitators. 
• Get advice from everyone in the room on activities, events and communities you can explore.
• Become part of an ongoing community to support each other moving forward.

Every attendee receives the Seattle Newcomers Club Journal, which includes scientifically designed prompts to help you envision a socially connected life in your new home city.
