Our organization is dedicated to supporting and empowering visible minorities and racialized Lao communities in Ontario. We provide a range of services and programs tailored to meet the unique needs of these communities. This includes offering settlement support to newcomers, helping them navigate the challenges of adapting to Canadian society and integrating successfully. We also work to ensure that the Lao community has access to appropriate programs and services that address their specific needs and aspirations.
In addition to our support services, we place great emphasis on promoting mutual understanding and racial harmony. We believe that preserving and sharing our rich heritage and culture plays a vital role in fostering understanding and building bridges between different communities. Through cultural events, workshops, and educational programs, we aim to create opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds to come together, learn from each other, and appreciate the beauty and diversity of Lao culture.
Our organization takes pride in being the only one in Ontario to offer community centre space for programs and services targeting Lao communities. This dedicated space allows us to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for community members to access the support and resources they need.
​Additionally, we actively collaborate with other community organizations, government agencies, and stakeholders to advocate for the needs and rights of visible minorities and racialized Lao communities. By working together, we strive to create a more inclusive and equitable society for all.
