children, youth, and families in their own homes. We are also home to the Child Welfare Immigration Centre of
Excellence (CWICE) which is the centralized service in Ontario that supports child welfare organizations on cases
involving unresolved immigration, settlement, or border-related issues. In addition, Peel CAS offers extensive
programming dedicated to youth success through our Trailblazers Youth Centre, developed and led by youth to
access exceptional services and supports to thrive, belong, build life-long connections and position themselves as
leaders.
