What is Immigrant Settlement and Adaptation Program?
Immigrant-serving organizations are prepared to help newcomers as soon as they arrive in Canada. These organizations can:

> refer you to economic, social, health, cultural, educational and recreational services;

> give you tips on banking, shopping, managing a household and other everyday tasks;

> provide interpreters or translators, if you need them;
provide non-therapeutic counselling; and

> help you prepare a professional-looking résumé and learn job-searching skills.

The Immigrant Settlement and Adaptation Program (ISAP) pays for these services.

Please provide details on the program "Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada"
Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) offers basic language instruction to adult newcomers to Canada.

The Government of Canada, in cooperation with provincial governments, school boards, community colleges, and immigrant and community organizations, offers free language training across the country for adult permanent residents. In most provinces, the name of the program is LINC, which stands for Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada. This pamphlet lists the LINC assessment centres across Canada. These centres can assess your language training needs and refer you to the right LINC classes for your needs.
