Our History

WILL was founded in 1984 as Women Immigrants of London Resource Service Centre – a non-profit community organization dedicated to helping immigrant women integrate into the London community. Today, WILL is a leader in immigrant employment services, not only guiding immigrants to understand and prepare for their chosen careers in Canada, but also supporting employers in finding skilled employees to address labour growth needs. In 2022, WILL rebranded from WIL Employment Connections to WILL Employment Solutions.

We welcome immigrant job seekers at all levels and from all backgrounds; we connect them to employers who are looking to attract and retain qualified talent. We pave the way for innovation in preparing for job opportunities and recruiting talent. We continuously learn from members of our team and the clients and partners we serve to improve and enhance our offerings. We empower our clients to take the lead in their journey to meaningful employment. And we lead the employment sector with our efforts to advocate for diversity in the workplace, to create and deliver projects that advance immigrant employment in Ontario.
