CICS is a charitable and multi-service agency that provides a wide range of cost-effective, culturally sensitive and professional settlement and community services in the GTA for over 50 years.
The Centre for Immigrant and Community Services (CICS) provides settlement services to help newcomers successfully adjust to life in Canada. Our experienced settlement workers offer information, guidance, and referrals to support individuals and families in navigating community services and building a strong foundation in their new communities.
Services are available in multiple languages and are delivered in different community settings to ensure newcomers can access support where they need it most.
CICS provides Newcomer Settlement Services at our agency locations. Settlement workers offer personalized support to help newcomers understand available services, access community resources, and develop settlement plans.
Our Volunteer Coordinator will be happy to provide information about current opportunities and guide you through the registration and onboarding process.
Through the Library Settlement Partnerships (LSP) program, CICS provides settlement support in local public libraries. This program allows newcomers to access settlement information and community resources in welcoming and accessible spaces.
CICS provides Settlement Workers in Schools (SWIS) through the Settlement and Education Partnerships in Toronto (SEPT) program. Settlement workers support newcomer students and their families in elementary and secondary schools in North York.
Through the Newcomer Orientation Week (NOW) and Welcome and Information for Newcomers (WIN) programs, families receive guidance to better understand the Canadian school system and access community supports.
