"A vibrant community where the refugee new arrival truly feels at home."

Church partnership enables us to make our house their home.

Who We Are

Welcome Home exists to provide short-term housing to refugee new arrivals from every ethnic and religious background.  Emotional and spiritual support is offered to newcomers that choose us as their residence.  We assist the refugee with settlement and seek to advocate on their behalf by engaging the community, especially the local churches.  Ultimately, our goal is to provide the support and skills that will enable refugees to lead a healthy and productive life, whether they remain in Canada or are forced to return to their home country.
