Youth Settlement Services

We provide out-of-school programs and support services for newcomer children between the ages of 3 and 25.

Youth Empowerment

  • Summer camps, out-of-school camps, activities, orientations, and field trips

  • Connect to community resources and programs while providing opportunities to make and meet new friends

  • Promote self-advocacy to encourage independence through resource sharing and support 

Out-of-School Programs

Newcomer Girls Group

Our Girls Group program aims to help prepare newcomer girls, aged 10–18 years old, to be active members of their communities and society as a whole by:

  • Connecting with their peers

  • Building communication skills

  • Expressing themselves through arts and crafts

  • Engaging in a variety of fun and educational field trips

  • Receiving assistance with basic needs and supplies

In spaces where they feel safe, nurtured, and mentored, our free program for newcomer girls runs every Friday afternoon.

Friendship Group

Social and emotional groups that support friendships between newcomer children and their peers.

Community Connection

Referrals to community partners and collaborating service providers.

Employment Referrals

We help youth gain Canadian work experience by connecting young job seekers with community organizations that specialize in employment support to youth.
