Like all immigrant populations, Black immigrants' contributions to science, art, food, sports and more are part of the history and development of the United States.

Leidi, a widowed mother of two, arrived in Atlanta as a refugee from Guatemala. With the support of the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡, she found safety, secured employment, and began establishing a stable future for her family. Today, they are thriving and optimistic about their continued growth, exemplifying the transformative power of community and compassion.

Cultivating welcome and integration is a collective effort. Together, we are turning hope into action in our communities. Join us in getting to know how dynamic supporters in Hutchinson, Kansas have partnered with the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in Wichita transforming lives through family sponsorship.

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ provides opportunities for refugees to thrive in America. In Los Angeles and many other regional offices across the country, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ helps them rebuild their lives and achieve self-sufficiency. To accomplish this, ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ LA relies heavily on efforts by our interns and volunteers.

Welcoming Week is an annual campaign that brings communities together by creating and fostering spaces of belonging!

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in Wichita is currently supported by a team of 55 active volunteers. Volunteers currently provide ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ staff assistance with case management, employment, Cultural Orientation (CO), Job Readiness Training (JRT), teaching ESL, youth and family mentoring and immigration services.

Looking back on 2020, and forward to a healthy, hopeful new year.

We are excited to welcome David Oliver, our new deputy director! David brings leadership and expertise in program design from his tenure at the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in Atlanta. David's commitment to serving the community and his deep understanding of client-centered programs will enable us to continue our growth in supporting our resilient clients as they seek to heal and rebuild their lives.

There's nothing more special than the gift of giving. This Holiday season, give a gift that has the highest value!
