Mission Statement
At the Mennonite New Life Centre, we provide a holistic, client-oriented
approach to settlement and integration, both short-term and
long-term, for newcomers to Canada. We offer newcomers a wide
range of services to help them adjust in a positive way to
their new life in Canada.
Objectives
- To meet the basic physical needs
of newcomers: food, shelter, and hospitality.
- To assist
and advocate for newcomers with a wide range of immigration
and settlement needs, such as translation and interpretation,
immigration-related applications and assistance in family
reunification.
- To provide educational services, such as
orientation to Canada, language instruction, life skills
training and employment training.
- To provide emotional support
such as counselling and support groups for those experiencing
long term difficulties in adjusting to Canadian society,
whether it be because of culture shock or because of trauma
shock
