UCC National and UCC Ontario are pleased to jointly re-launch an updated version of the Ukrainian Newcomers' Resource Guide. Originally launched in July 2022, our Third Edition of this guide features critical additions and updates. It provides critical support information to the thousands of displaced Ukrainians and their families who continue to settle in Ontario. We have also added an updated QR code for easier distribution and access.

The resource guide identifies the multitude of needs that newcomers have and provides clear information on how these needs can be met based on services provided by available provincial institutions. Specifically, the document provides key information on: 

·    Documents of Life (SIN, OHIP)

·    Legal Rights in Canada

·    Phone & Wi-Fi Plans

·    Transportation

·    Temporary and Permanent Housing

·    Financial Assistance and Services

·    Food Access

·    Childcare

·    Healthcare

·    Education 

·    Employment Support

This updated project is a result of the collaborative effort between UCC Ontario and UCC National, made possible by the generous support of the Canada-Ukraine Foundation. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this invaluable collaboration!

We have included two printable posters (Ukrainian and English) that can be shared and posted freely with your local communities, including businesses, churches, community centres, and other public spaces. Please share with friends, family, and colleagues to ensure that this information is widely available to displaced Ukrainians across Ontario.
