Supporting Armenian Syrian Refugees: Unique Needs and Challenges

In the last two years, over 40,000 Syrian refugees have resettled across Canada. As with other refugee populations, Syrian refugees are diverse and heterogeneous – in culture, language and religious background, for example.

In this webinar, Jeanette Gevikoglu and Maida Icliates of Armenian Family Support Services discuss the mental health support services they provide to Syrian refugees in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and how they meet the unique needs and challenges of this refugee population, such as challenges in integration and adaption to life in Canada.

This webinar is hosted by the Refugee Mental Health Project.
