The New Immigrants Foundation for Special Needs

New Immigrants Foundation for Special Needs helps seniors and newcomers to Canada find belonging, build new lives, and thrive together in the community.

Our Mission

Everyone deserves to belong and to flourish.

NIFSN (New Immigrants Foundation for Special Needs) was founded on the belief that every new country should feel like home! We stand beside seniors and immigrants across Canada, walking with them towards confidence and a bright future!
