The Oromo Canadian Community Association of GTA (OCCA-GTA) is nonprofit community association founded in September 1988 by Canadians of Oromo origin and new Oromo immigrants. The Association is committed to offering a range of activities that can be tailored to meet Immigrant Oromo's needs. OCCA believes that Oromo community is rich in heritage culture, faculty, ingenuity and urge and it is there to preserve and build upon that.

At the same time OCCAGTA provides more intensive service and assistance to Oromos to integrate with the Canadian Society and take advantage of the mainstream services.
