Newcomers have many barriers to achieving full participation in society. Immigrant women have even more barriers because of their role within their families and their cultures.

COSTI offers a number of progams and services to help immigrant women deal with the many unique and specific challenges they face. Services include:

• individual counselling;


• a Drop-In centre for women who are homeless or near-homeless;


• employment counselling and placement;
  
• settlement services; and


• language training services.

Our language training programs offer childcare services for immigrant women participating in ESL/LINC classes.

Please refer to the Program and Services section of this website for more detailed information.215
