About this service
Protego Foster Houses welcomes and assists newly arrived refugee claimants, those who ask for asylum upon arrival in Canada.
There is no system in place to assist them and hence they sometimes spend their first night in Canada literally on the street or at rough homeless shelters. Despite having reached a safe country, they are at risk of being victimized and re-traumatized. Protego Foster Houses serves this group of very vulnerable refugee claimants.
Protego Foster Houses, staff and volunteers foster a supportive community dedicated to meeting all their basic needs. Our services include:
- Safe shelter.
- Expert settlement and orientation support.
- Assistance with their refugee claim process.
- Finding and furnishing apartments.
Who can use it?
Newly arrived refugee claimants, those who ask for asylum upon arrival in Canada.
