The CCR believes in the right of everyone to seek asylum and enjoy a dignified life, ensuring that refugees, refugee claimants, displaced persons, and immigrants have the rights and protections outlined in national and international agreements. Additionally, the CCR emphasizes the importance of settlement services, taking into account the experiences of refugee and immigrant women, children, and the effects of racism. The CCR fulfills its mission by providing networking opportunities, promoting policy analysis and information exchange, and advocating for the rights of refugees and immigrants through various means. Non-governmental organizations, as well as individuals, are encouraged to join the CCR and contribute to their efforts. The CCR addresses a wide range of concerns, including protection of refugees, family reunification, trafficking of women and girls, immigration detention, and newcomers' access to services. Their policy base is established through resolutions adopted at General Members' Meetings, and they maintain a collaborative and democratic approach in their work. Donations play a crucial role in supporting the CCR, as they receive no core funding from the government. By donating and getting involved, individuals can contribute to the critical work of the CCR in advocating for the rights and well-being of refugees and migrants. ## Industries - 📊 Business and Consumer Services ## Links - [twitter](https://twitter.com/ccrweb) - [linkedin](https://linkedin.com/company/canadian-council-for-refugees) - [facebook](https://facebook.com/ccrweb) - [instagram](https://instagram.com/ccrweb) ## Logos & icons - icon _(primary)_ — JPEG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idU1YlrHOZ/w/400/h/400/theme/dark/icon.jpeg?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1788115024647) - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idU1YlrHOZ/w/820/h/214/theme/dark/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1788115024478) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Diesel | #190002 | dark | | Tonys Pink | #e78887 | light | | Alizarin Crimson | #dd2125 | accent | ## Fonts - var(--bs-body-font-family) — asset _(custom)_ - Soehne — asset _(custom)_ ## Imagery - banner _(primary)_ — JPEG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idU1YlrHOZ/w/1500/h/500/idnbk8GERH.jpeg?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1788115024817) --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
