Creating communities that welcome.
We work together to strengthen the fabric of our nation
Global Refuge embraces our new neighbors with holistic, trauma-informed services, protection, and age-appropriate care.
With over eight decades of experience walking with New Americans, Global Refuge believes in the “long welcome.” This means we are providing more than just immediate support to immigrants and refugees, but standing alongside them as they rebuild their lives, navigate a new culture, find a new home, a new job, and a new sense of belonging and community.
New Americans contribute to a vibrant and resilient society, culturally, civically, and economically. We are committed to empowering our neighbors with support for employment, training, and hiring as they become leaders in their communities.
