Adjusting to life in a new country can feel overwhelming. Our settlement services provide one-on-one guidance and group workshops to help newcomers understand local systems, access government programs, and navigate everyday tasks such as transportation, banking, and education. We ensure you have the tools and knowledge to feel confident and at home.

Finding meaningful employment is central to building a stable future. Our employment support team assists with résumé writing, interview preparation, job search strategies, and networking opportunities. We also connect clients with employers and industry-specific mentorship programs, ensuring they can access jobs that match their skills and aspirations.

Language is the key to communication and integration. We offer English (and other local language) classes at different proficiency levels, focusing on everyday communication, workplace language, and cultural nuances. Our training is flexible, with options for in-person and online learning, so that newcomers can progress at their own pace.

Immigrants often face complex legal and bureaucratic challenges. Our legal and advocacy support connects newcomers to trusted immigration consultants, legal aid resources, and rights-based workshops. We advocate for fair treatment and empower clients to understand and exercise their rights in housing, employment, and immigration matters.

Building a sense of belonging is at the heart of what we do. SplitRoots organizes cultural events, recreational programs, volunteer opportunities, and mentorship circles where newcomers can meet others, share experiences, and celebrate diversity. These initiatives foster friendships, mutual understanding, and stronger communities.

Safe and affordable housing is essential for settlement success. Our housing assistance program guides newcomers in finding rental options, understanding tenant rights and responsibilities, and applying for housing benefits if eligible. We also work with landlords and community partners to make housing more accessible.
