ABOUT US
Serving our community with dedication and compassion since 1968. We are a community-based non-profit organization dedicated to supporting newcomers and their families as they build a new life in Canada. Our programs are funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and other government and community partners. Through a wide range of free settlement and integration services, we assist newcomers in navigating essential systems such as housing, employment, language training, education, and community engagement. Our goal is to empower individuals and families with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to thrive and contribute meaningfully to Canadian society. We believe that strong support leads to stronger communities.
