Intake and referral services
The first step to receiving settlement services from Immigrant & Refugee Services Association PEI (IRSA) is to register. A settlement worker will determine eligibility for services, conduct a needs assessment, and develop a settlement plan for each eligible client. If possible, families are registered in a single appointment.
Intake and referral services include:
- Collecting the required personal information needed to provide further services
- Initial help with applying for some important documents and services
- Providing relevant information to assist with settlement
- Referrals to the Association's programs or external programs, depending on individual needs
