Urgent Support for Palestinian Evacuees: Sign Nisa Foundation Petition to the Canadian Government

The ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza has led to a severe displacement of individuals and families who are now in desperate need of safety, support, and refuge.

We request the Canadian Government to:

Facilitate Safe and Expedited Entry

• Implement emergency procedures for family reunification, expedite visa applications.
• Establish immediate accommodations (food, clothing, medication, settlement workers).
• Issue open work permits upon arrival and waive fees.

Provide Comprehensive Support Services

• Fund mid to long-term housing.
• Guarantee full healthcare, including mental health services.
• Support educational programs and community organizations helping evacuees.

Invest in Mental Health and Community Integration:

• Fund mental health services to address trauma and stress, offering counselling and therapy tailored to the needs of those affected.
• Promote community integration through outreach programs, cultural exchanges, and employment assistance.

Enhance Support for Local Organizations and Volunteers:

• Increase funding for NGOs and community groups actively involved in aiding Gaza evacuees.
• Support volunteer efforts with necessary resources and training to ensure effective assistance.

Promote Public Awareness and Advocacy:

• Launch public awareness campaigns to educate Canadians about the plight of Gaza evacuees and encourage community support.
• Advocate for policies that support the needs of evacuees and align with humanitarian values.

Your support in these areas is crucial for ensuring that Gaza evacuees receive urgent assistance. By taking these actions, Canada can demonstrate its commitment to humanitarian principles and offer hope and relief to those in dire circumstances.
