Multicultural Helping House Society

Description

In its 20-year history, the MHHS-NRC has provided assistance to thousands of new immigrants in addressing their needs from settlement, employment, social services, skills enhancement, respite housing, legal assistance, and education services.

Through the years, the society has been well-known for its ability to provide immediate assistance to individuals in crisis and those who are disadvantaged either due to language, employment or social isolation.

Duly recognized and supported by the three levels of government - Federal, Provincial, and local - the MHHS-NRC provides programs for all immigrants regardless of their background. It also runs special programs centered on the youth, senior citizens and families.

The MHHS-NRC continues to operate based on the virtue of volunteerism, the moving force behind the society’s inception in 1996. The society’s success is attributed to its ability to collaborate and partner with members of the community, its donors and its volunteers.
