Every Service You Need,
Under One Roof

"We believe no one should navigate the system alone. Every service we offer is confidential and delivered with dignity."

Settlement & Application Help

Get expert assistance with government forms, immigration paperwork, PR applications, citizenship, and benefit enrollment — in your language.

  • Government Form Assistance (IRCC, ODSP, OW)
  • Immigration & Refugee Applications
  • Benefits & Social Services Enrollment

Employment Assistance

Résumé writing, interview coaching, credential recognition, job matching, and connection to employer networks across the GTA.

Advocacy & Legal Support

Professional advocates for housing rights, workplace discrimination, family law, tenant rights, and system navigation. Your voice, amplified.

💬

One On One Consultation

Each new client will have an intake consultation. Our team gets to know you, your family, and your needs. Ongoing consultations are available with our counsellors to address mental health, emotional concerns, or simply to have a safe space — equipping you with tools to live a fulfilling, empowered life.

🌐

Translation & Interpretation Services

Advocacy and integrity are key fixtures in our services. Five Save Life translates and interprets English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Somali, and Urdu — helping clients communicate confidently with government bodies, schools, workplaces, and residences. All written translations come with an affidavit certifying accuracy.

🏡

Helping To Find A Residence

We work with clients to understand housing needs and educate them about rent, home-sharing, and relocation options across Ontario. Five Save Life connects clients with shelters and appropriate housing, with exclusive access to our network of real estate agents and individual homeowners.

🔍

Helping To Find A Job

Finding a job is about empowerment and independence. We assess career goals, education levels, and the steps needed to find appropriate, secure employment — with workshops for resume building, interview preparation, and job-finding. Clients also get exclusive access to private employment services.

📄

Helping Fill Out Applications

We assist clients with government and non-government applications — permanent residence, citizenship, passports, housing registration, case letters, and applications for government-supported services and programs. Each of our six regions has a specialist ready to help.

🧠

Affordable Psychotherapy Sessions

Five Save Life provides affordable psychotherapy sessions for single parents navigating stress, trauma, grief, or life transitions. Our qualified therapists offer a safe, confidential space to support your mental and emotional well-being — because a stronger you means a stronger family.
