Settlement Services for Newcomers

Moving to a new country can seem overwhelming at first. There are a lot of changes and unknowns as you navigate the day-to-day aspects of your new life. But you’re not alone. There are professional organizations that deliver services and programs at no cost to help you get a successful start in New Brunswick. Take a look at what’s available to help you get settled.

An immigrant-serving agency (ISA) is an organization that provides services to immigrants to help with their settlement and integration into their new community. See the list of agencies below.

There are immigrant-serving agencies across the province ready to welcome you and help you adjust to your new life in New Brunswick. These agencies can assist you with accessing language training, finding employment, and getting to know your new community. They can also be a place to go when you need information about living and working here. Some associations also organize intercultural and multicultural activities to bring together Canadians and newcomers to meet and get to know each other.

The Immigration NB Team’s Orientation for Guide for Newcomers contains information on a range of topics that will help you to get established in New Brunswick.
