PEIANC Community Engagement and Employment Workshops

Canadian Life Skills The Canadian Life Skills program provides newly-arrived government-assisted refugees (GARs) with guidance and support as they adjust to life in Canada. The program is delivered during the first 12 months after arrival in Prince Edward Island. The CLS worker visits with families and covers a number of topics with them depending on their specific needs, including education on healthcare, child care services, banking, cooking, local laws, to name a few. The CLS program also offers a series of workshops on a wide variety of subjects open to all newcomers, regardless of their immigration status. 7
