Stand With Refugees and Immigrants

Since our founding in 1918, we have fought for the protection and safety of newcomers. Today, as the federal government targets refugees and immigrants, that work is more important than ever. 

As a community, we must stand up and speak out to ensure refugees and immigrants have the support they need to live safely. Explore our links below to learn more about current immigration policy and how you can help.

SERVICES HIGHLIGHT

English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)

The refugees and immigrants we serve tell us that strong English language skills are the key to unlocking their dreams. In the U.S., speaking, writing, and understanding English equates to freedom, connection, and opportunity, and it empowers clients to advocate for themselves and their families, build relationships with neighbors, continue their education, and enter and succeed in the U.S. workforce.
