Working alongside refugees and immigrants
Support refugees and immigrants
Since our founding in 2015, over 280,000 refugees have been admitted into the United States and resettled in communities across the country.
The challenges that refugees and immigrants face in establishing themselves in a new country are monumental, and many must approach it with limited English-proficiency and minimal income.
SCN helps refugees and immigrants to navigate new systems and provides them with resources to attain economic security, feel empowered in their education, and become permanent residents or citizens.
Our volunteers are dedicated to welcoming refugees and immigrants in their community. Near or far, there’s room for everyone interested!

We can all do more to support refugees and immigrants in our community and demand more protections, inclusive policies, funding, and welcome.
