Welcome

Vernon & District Immigrant Services Society (VDISS) is a non-profit society, assisting Immigrants, Refugees, Visible Minorities and First Generation Canadians and their families with their settlement and integration into Canadian society.
 

We have been assisting our clients in the Vernon area since 1996, and in 2005 expanded to offer our existing Employment Services in Kelowna.
