More About LUSO
LUSO Community Services was originally formed in 1979 as Portuguese Community Services. At the time, the focus was to assist Portuguese immigrants to integrate into the Canadian socio-political and cultural environment. Today, we provide a variety of programs and services with a holistic approach to serving our community. Our programs support children, youth and families of culturally diverse backgrounds.
