We can help you to feel at home in Regina!
Regina is a vibrant and growing metropolis, but settling in a new city can be challenging for anyone. You may be alone or with your family, but many things are different in a new town. The people are new, the language is foreign, and the culture is different and everyone you knew is back home.
You may be asking yourself…
About the Program
The Orientation Services for Newcomers (OSN) program supports newcomers to meet their settlement needs, gain knowledge of life in Canada, understand how to access IRCC/non-IRCC funded programs, and adapt/ integrate into the community.
