Youth Development

Youth development programs for refugees and asylum seekers in Canada focus on helping young people integrate into their new environment, build skills, and overcome the challenges associated with displacement.

It can be challenging to adapt and blend in when you relocate to a new nation. Many juvenile immigration services are offered by Fountain Connect Development Inc. to assist with job searching, school registration, community engagement, English language practice, and getting to know your new surroundings.

You can get group or one-on-one support from our staff of youth support workers. Additional programs are offered by the Fountain Connect Development Inc. youth facility especially for refugee families with young children. There are multiple language versions of the programs.
