About this service

Building Connections provides immigrant youth with the necessary life skills, employability skills, and support to adapt to Canadian society, overcome barriers to employment, and succeed on the job. Three different components are offered. Participants may take 1 or 2 of the following:

  • Group Based Employability Skills is a 6-week workshop.
  • Employability Skills through Work Experience is a 2-week workshop followed by a 10-week work experience placement. This intervention will provide the necessary tools for immigrant youth to find and sustain full time permanent employment.
  • Work Experience is a 12-week work experience designed for individuals who demonstrate strong employability skills, but lack Canadian work experience. This will provide participants with practical 1-on-1 support searching for, and securing workplace experience, and an opportunity to gain additional skills to assist in securing gainful employment.
Who can use it?

Immigrant youth (15-30)
