Mission Statement

At ResQue International, we work with marginalized populations, including refugees, immigrants, and adult students from all walks of life, to provide meaningful employment and educational opportunities in various communities. We believe that education and employment provide tools to our participants that empower them to make positive changes towards a better future for themselves and their families. These small successes in our participants’ lives lead to long-term advocacy and empowerment towards the advancement of large scale social, economic, and racial change.

Description

ResQue International Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting marginalized populations through employment, education, and mental health services. We assist with job readiness by offering resume workshops, interview prep, and partnerships with local businesses to create meaningful employment opportunities.

We promote continuing education by removing barriers for adult learners. Our ESL and GED classes help participants advance, while we also guide them through selecting and applying to post-secondary institutions, including securing financial aid.

Mental health is a key focus of our mission. We provide individual and group counseling to offer culturally competent care, reduce stigma, and support overall well-being.

Through our diverse programs, we empower individuals to build better futures for themselves, their families, and their communities, fostering long-term social, economic, and racial equality.
