Or something like that. Might help if you could be more specific about the type of assistance.
if the skirt is generally work-appropriate or not.
For me the only question would be length / coverage. I've worn totally appropriate denim skirts at jobs where jeans were never appropriate, so...
I think that as long as it's not too short, it would be appropriate anywhere jeans are appropriate. Or, what Cass said.
The acclimating part is generally referred to as "settlement".
Modifying Dana's:
We have provided support to employees from diverse nationalities in obtaining work visas and with settlement in their new communities.
I wore a denim skirt to my Oxford interview. Twenty years later I'm suddenly getting all appropriate?
My god, I can't believe my mother let me wear that. My blouse was very pretty, though.
I need more steel-toed shoes and more denim skirts, I'm suddenly convinced. But I don't need more shoes. And I don't need more clothes.
Now I'm worried that settlement is a Canadian usage, b/c every immgration reference I find to it is from Canada.
I've got some Gymboree coupon codes if anyone is interested.

Thanks, y'all I smushed your excellent suggestions up into one, way improved, sentence and sent the whole document off to the VP.
A denim skirt sounds perfectly acceptable.
And I don't need more clothes.
I'm sure I don't either, and yet I'm browsing a bunch of different blazers. And skirts.
I also could do with more blazers and turtlenecks. Despite oncoming LA summer. It's still going to be wintry in this office, as long as I'm employed here.
