Refuge Connect

RefugeeConnect’s mission is to connect refugees (people forced to flee their country to escape persecution or war) with resources to rebuild their lives as United States citizens. We help refugees from 14 countries who speak 12 languages. Our cornerstone program, the Community Navigator program, bridges the gap between community resources and refugee needs. It increases equity in service provision through advocacy while educating families on available resources as well as how to access these resources. Community navigators are cultural leaders who support families in their native language by connecting them to resources and services and helping them navigate systems, including the healthcare system.
