Community Resources
Toronto Community Services Resource Guide for Non-Status Immigrants The resource guide was created by the Davenport Perth Neighbourhood Centre to help immigrants residing in Toronto without status to access essential community and social programs and services safely and without fear of having to disclose their status. This guide is also for community workers and front-line staff, so that they can better assist non-status clients.
