Immigrant Settlement and Adaptation Program

Immigrant-serving organizations are prepared to help newcomers as soon as they arrive in Canada. These organizations can:

• refer you to economic, social, health, cultural, educational and recreational services;
• give you tips on banking, shopping, managing a household and other everyday tasks;
• provide interpreters or translators, if you need them;
• provide non-therapeutic counselling; and
• help you prepare a professional-looking résumé and learn job-searching skills.

The Immigrant Settlement and Adaptation Program (ISAP) pays for these services.
