This paper explores how newcomer youth experience social inclusion in their first years of settlement in a mid-sized Canadian city—Windsor, Ontario. The paper situates the experiences of newcomer youth within the larger community context of welcoming initiatives to identify the avenues through which they are included and excluded from their local places of residence. Analysis reveals that newcomer youth experience uneven neighborhood connections, employment opportunities, and treatment in public space. Still, their social participation outside of schools is marked by their regulation to immigrant-specific spaces. We argue for community initiatives that support newcomer youth in ways that are inclusive of their complex identities as young people, address their long-term integration needs, and that do not reproduce or intensify exclusionary silos in the community
