"I was having a wonderful time speaking to the program facilitator, which helped me feel like I have people I can turn to whenever I need help. Thank you for putting smiles on the faces of so many immigrant mothers."
Chantel
"Thanks to House to Home Program, I was able to build a home for my children. The support was amazing. It made living in a different city more comfortable. Everyone was so supportive, so comforting, and non-judgmental. I felt accepted."

"The moment I started the Retail Ready Program, I was inspired to keep going until I completed it. And when I did, I felt empowered. I've never felt so confident in preparing my own resume and cover letter."
