Polycultural Immigrant and Community Services
Polycultural Immigrant and Community Services is a vibrant and varied organization. It is a licensed NGO managed by a volunteer Board of Directors and is primarily funded by the Government of Canada.
Polycultural was formed on February 3, 1993, from the merging of two organizations: Polish Immigrant Aid Services (established in 1973) and Polish Canadian Community Services (founded in 1982). In January 1994, the merger was finalized with the goal of delivering a greater range of services while limiting inefficiencies.
The organization’s name was changed to Polycultural Immigrant and Community Services on August 27, 2000, to better represent the local communities supported by the organization.
