The Vietnamese Community Center aims to provide programs that assist newcomers in developing essential skills for integrating into Canadian society.
Our goal is to ensure that programs and services provided by VCCM and other organizations in the region are accessible to the general population.
We strive to embrace diversity and the traditions our newcomers bring and hope to enrich the multicultural community.
