Central Vancouver Island Multicultural Society

As a family we are so grateful for CVIMS, they have really fun camps and kind, responsible leaders! My kids enjoyed it!!!

Clean and accommodating place. The parking is sparse so be wary of that

CVIMS has been playing a significant role in shaping the lives of the new immigrants. Off late, I have been observing that they are including various activities encompassing almost all age groups which is really praiseworthy. I hope the Organisation will continue to put their best efforts with constant innovation in bringing out the best out of its Clients thereby contributing in overall economic, social and cultural development of the local community.

We are very pleased with the service, events offered and organized by CVIMS. The staff are very kind, and always here to help. Most of the events are designed in holidays or school break, which are very helpful for kids to get blend into the community.

It is good place for every new comers. Very friendly, helpful. I know and learn many many things from here.

Thanks for CVIMS’s Spring Break Activities for the past 3 days. My son said that he was very happy and want more in future : )

I arrived to Canada in the end of June with my family. I registered direct online with Multicultural society and got fast school admission for my kids and access to employment opportunities. Great thanks to Rim for still supporting me and my family with day to day enquiries and guiding through local services!

It's a amazing organization! The staffs there are so friendly and helpful. Ammar did his best to help us sloving all kinds of problems. Emika held lots of activities for kids to join and make friends. They love a lots! Marie is always thoughtful and considerate who is my first friend while I arrived here. Thanks for you guys. You are wonderful!

Every immigrant must visit and book an appointment here.Very helpful and cordial stuff. We tried to get their service during December end and holiday season was about to kick in but still the staff were able to squeeze us in.Hoping we will get proper guidance from them in coming months as well.

The team at CVIMS were fully on top of their game....from the heart and head. They showed empathy and competence. I am so much affected by their support. I recommend this resource to any newcomer looking for solid settlement support. The course was very conveniently delivered online and the workshops were an effective opportunity for reinforced learning. Happy to have met and made new friends (a joy for new comers!) among the participants too.PS: The program came to real life use for me as I used much of the learning (1. Canadian resume styling and 2. Interview format - STAR Technique), to score well at an interview for a job during the course.Thank you IRCC, thank you IEC-BC, thank you CVIMS (Wendy!).
