direct ASSISTANCE
Work with an interpreter to answer questions, complete forms, and connect clients to community-based resources. Previous experience or knowledge in applying for public assistance is strongly preferred but not required.
ESSENTIAL TRANSPORT
Collect or deliver books, cleaning supplies, meals or other donations that ensure the safety and wellbeing of refugees during their resettlement. Provide transportation to support groups, medical appointments, grocery shopping, and other needs.
INTERPRETATION & TRANSLATION
This is a vital part of what we do. Work with clients to provide answers in their native language, interpret at meetings, and connect refugees with assistance and community resources that meet their needs. We particularly need volunteers who speak Burmese, Chin dialects, Karen, Karenni, and other languages from Burma.
