I am a resident and want to help

Thank you for your interest in supporting people affected by the Russian War on Ukraine. We are currently working to gather local supports.

I have housing available

There are several ways to offer your house for individuals. Select an option below. Note that you should first complete a vulnerable sector screening which can be done online through St. Thomas Police or through the OPP for Elgin County.

I currently have people staying with me

Once you have helped your individual or family move in, it is recommended you connect them with the local settlement agency. The services offered are free for Ukrainians that arrived under CUAET and other means. They can support navigating the Canadian system and are experienced in all matters of immigrant settlement including accessing English language learning. Learn more about Settlement Services.
