Our Mission
To provide Rohingya families with the resources, tools, and support needed to integrate into Canadian society while preserving their cultural heritage. We aim to foster resilience, independence, and inclusion through settlement programs, education, and community-building initiatives.
Our Vision
We envision a world where no one is marginalized or forgotten. By championing inclusivity, equality, and community support, we aim to empower the Rohingya people and strengthen the multicultural fabric of Canadian society.
Who Are the Rohingya?
The Rohingya are a stateless ethnic group predominantly from Myanmar. For decades, they have faced systemic persecution, violence, and genocide, forcing many to flee their homes in search of safety. The 2017 genocide led to the displacement of over 700,000 Rohingya refugees, with many seeking refuge in Bangladesh and other countries.
In response to this crisis, the Canadian Rohingya Society Quebec was established to assist Rohingya refugees arriving in Canada. Our organization seeks to provide a lifeline for these stateless individuals, offering resources to help them rebuild their lives while raising awareness about the ongoing challenges faced by the Rohingya community worldwide.
