Safe Arrival
Starts Here
Practical relief, settlement guidance and community for Chinese refugees and newcomers across Canada
Behind The
Association
CRARA was founded by former claimants and Canadian volunteers who knew how bewildering a first winter, first hearing and first rent cheque can be.
Today CRARA exists so no Chinese refugee or newcomer faces the settlement system alone, in any language or any province.
