About us
Ukrainian Roots, Canadian Home
At UCSS Ottawa, we celebrate the beauty of Ukrainian culture and the strength of community. Through cultural events, gatherings, and shared traditions, we create meaningful opportunities for newcomers to connect, build lasting friendships, and feel truly at home in Canada.
We're especially passionate about supporting children and youth. Our tailored programs help young people integrate with confidence, explore their talents, and embrace their dual identity — proudly Ukrainian, proudly Canadian.
Empowering the Next Generation
Our mission at Ukrainian Canadian Social Services Ottawa is to offer hope, stability, and compassion to Ukrainians settling in the Ottawa region. We assist families through every step — from essential settlement services and community integration to youth mentorship and cultural engagement.
Beyond local support, we extend our care across borders, helping the defenders of freedom in Ukraine through medical aid initiatives. Together, we build stronger communities and brighter futures — one act of service at a time.
