Are you a self-directed volunteer who'd like to help a refugee learn English? Volunteer as a conversation partner for a newly arrived refugee! Conversation partners visit clients at their homes for approximately 1 hour each week and provide opportunities for one-on-one English practice. These visits assist clients as they search for jobs, navigate their new neighborhoods, and learn to converse with their new American neighbors.
