What is Welcome2Midland?
Welcome2Midland is an initiative of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition, a community-driven group dedicated to helping everyone feel good, struggle well, and thrive together.
Starting fresh in a new community is exciting, but it can also feel a little overwhelming. Welcome2Midland ensures you don’t have to navigate that journey alone. This initiative is for anyone new to the Midland area—or even longtime residents who want to feel more connected. Whether you’re looking for the best local parks, ways to get involved, or simply a friendly face to answer your questions, Welcome2Midland bridges the gap between arriving in a new place and truly feeling at home.
Our Welcome2Midland team includes a friendly coordinator and trained Community Ambassadors who are local volunteers ready to help new residents feel connected, informed, and supported. They’re warm, knowledgeable neighbors who share local tips, answer questions, and help you feel like you belong.
