Help us highlight the many places that employees of the Municipality of Chatham-Kent have called home!
Please take a moment to share where in the world you have lived to help us create our map. The map will be used during Welcome Week and beyond to celebrate the many pathways our team members have taken to Chatham-Kent!
The information you share can be as detailed or as high level as you like. You do not have to attach your name. We are looking for people who are willing to share their journey to Chatham-Kent, we have one question where you can let us know if you are interested.
