Newcomer's Guide

Arriving in a new land is not always an easy task.

This big step demands a lot from us, including acceptance of the new and the unpredictable. A new climate, new culture, new language, new rules, and laws…

With this in mind, we at BRINCA, in partnership with Aline Rezende (Community Services Coordinator of our association), have prepared a guide with information for newly arrived Brazilians in Ottawa, aiming to facilitate access to essential information and available services in the region. Here, you will find important topics to assist you in your arrival and settlement in the city.

We hope this support material can help many families who are new to Ottawa!

Enjoy the reading!
