For newcomers experiencing language barriers, cultural isolation and unfamiliar surroundings accessing important community services can be a challenge. Our team helps Government Assisted Refugees access resources they may need for their health and wellbeing.

Gathering Information To Better Serve Newcomers to Canada
Most of the programs and services provided by the CCLC are funded entirely or in part by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). As an IRCC-funded organization, we are required to present you, as our client, with the pamphlet which explains why we need to ask you for certain personal information, such as your full name, date of birth, and immigration identification number.
