The Baltimore City Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs (MIMA) is recruiting reliable individuals to join our Volunteer Team. MIMA understands that due to language, literacy, and technological barriers, members of the immigrant community may have a difficult time navigating services and resources available to them through city, state, and federal entities. The Volunteer Team will bridge these gaps, considering the public health and economic impact that COVID-19 may have on immigrant communities. Volunteer Team members will be invited to become involved in opportunities to support a variety of programs and initiatives, both remotely and in-person, depending on need.
If interested, please complete the Volunteer Application form at bit.ly/MIMAvolunteer. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, but those interested in assisting with COVID-19 response are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. For questions, please contact mimavolunteer@gmail.com.

Location:
100 Holliday St., Baltimore, MD 21202, US
Mission Statement
The mission of the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs is to promote community wellbeing, economic development, and the integration of immigrant communities by identifying needs and opportunities that immigrants bring to our city, while developing public-private partnerships to strengthen the development of these communities.
Description
The Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs (MIMA) is a result of a recommendation from The New Americans Task Force, The Role of Immigrants in Growing Baltimore-a diverse group of stakeholders convened in the summer of 2013 to develop a plan to retain and attract immigrants as part of the mayor’s goal to grow Baltimore.
MIMA focuses on two broad priority areas: economic growth and community well-being. These areas have the greatest potential to leverage existing resources and identify additional gaps and opportunities, in order to recognize and benefit from the valuable assets that New Americans bring to Baltimore.
