YMCA Centre for Immigrant Programs

 

 The YMCA provides immigrant youth, children and their families with a variety of program and outreach services. Our approach is to deliver community based support in a Centre that is inclusive and welcoming, as well as to provide onsite services for students at several partner schools.

The purpose of YMCA Immigrant Programs is to help immigrants to Canada settle into their new homes in the Halifax Regional Municipality, and to help the mainstream population understand the issues and barriers newcomers face while adjusting and adapting to a new language, culture, climate and community, while maintaining their own. With funding from Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) and Nova Scotia Office of Immigration (NSOI), our YMCA offers several programs.
