Refugees


For many refugees, their difficult journey doesn’t end when they reach America. They may need to apply for benefits to survive until they can work, referrals to immigration services to apply for work authorization, help enrolling their children in school, and learn English. When they are work-eligible we can help them train for and/or find a job.

JVS offers all of these services to refugees.
