Description
Refugee Resettlement Services
During the first 90 days after a refugee arrives in the United States, we are dedicated to helping refugees get established and off to a good start in their new home. We work closely with them to secure housing and find employment, enroll in school and English classes, connect to medical care, orient to their community and build bridges across cultures. In St. Cloud, we also provide additional services to students to help them achieve school success and support refugees who have been victims of trafficking.
Immigration ServicesWe offer Immigration Legal Services at low cost to help refugees, asylees and other immigrants living in the Twin Cities and St. Cloud. We help them complete immigration documents - including Green Card and visa applications, citizenship documents and family reunification petitions. Services are available by appointment or via walk-ins on Tuesdays in the Twin Cities and Wednesdays in St. Cloud.
Employment ServicesWe work with employers in the Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota to provide job placement and employment retention support to refugees and asylees who have been in the U.S. for less than five years.
