The first step to volunteering with our refugee programs is to attend an information and training session. Please DO NOT fill out applications or complete background checks until AFTER you have attended one of these sessions. This is an opportunity to learn about the current refugee situation, the various ways you can get involved, and about refugee advocacy.
