About the We Value Partnership:
As a proud partner of the WE Value Partnership, South Essex Community Council (SECC) is now offering newcomers a holistic and capacity-focused assessment that connects them to services, supports, opportunities, and people based on their strengths, skills, and needs. The WE Value Settlement Assessment uses an innovative digital system to build a customized settlement plan with referrals, giving clients more opportunities to use their assets, skills, talents and gifts while adjusting to a happy, safe, and confident life as community members.
Clients can still access the WE Value Settlement Assessment through SECC and their partnership with the YMCA of Southwestern Ontario (YSWO).
You are eligible for a WE Value Settlement Assessment at no cost to you if you are a Permanent Resident or Convention Refugee. At this time, International Students, Refugee Claimants or those with Work or Study Permits are not eligible.
