Services
CMAS is committed to helping organizations working with newcomer children. We support the establishment and operation of quality newcomer child care programs that meet the needs of the families they serve.
Founded in 2000, and funded through Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), we monitor and support programs that provide care for newcomer children in the settlement community.
At CMAS, we are dedicated to the safe and successful integration of children who are new to Canada. We develop resources, highlight research, and showcase information and ideas for administrators, child care providers and all professionals interested in enhancing the care provided to newcomer families.
