Our Settlement Workers

Our settlement team has supported thousands of newcomers in identifying their needs and making a plan for settling in Hamilton. From housing to healthcare, settlement workers are here to support you as you build a new future in Canada. They also offer information sessions on key settlement topics each month. Services are free and offered online for newcomers to Canada.

Make an appointment before going to one of our premises to help reduce waiting times and better help us serve you better.

Working with both individuals and families, we can support you in the following:
