The HIPPY program promotes settlement and integration for newcomer parents, their children, and families. By providing a parent-led pre-school curriculum with the support of peer Home Visitors, the program aims to help parents prepare their children for success in the Canadian school system and increase social inclusion through group meetings.

Services include:
• Weekly in-home delivery of curriculum and training with a Home Visitor for 30 weeks
• Free materials, books, activity packets, and supplies
• Group meetings for building family social networks and developing skills
• Newcomer support to help reduce language and cultural barriers
