✨ About CNEP
The Canadian Newcomer Empowerment Program (C.N.E.P.) helps newcomers navigate the first steps of settling into life in Canada with confidence and support.
We connect individuals and families to trusted housing, employment, and community resources — bridging the gap between arrival and belonging.
Rooted in dignity, fairness, and practical care, CNEP is where policy meets people — transforming relocation into a guided journey toward home, opportunity, and connection.

Le programme pilote national du CNAP rassemble les fondations essentielles de l’appartenance : logement, langue, emploi, communauté et leadership. Les nouveaux arrivants ne font pas que “s’installer” — ils avancent sur un parcours structuré de l’arrivée à l’appartenance.
