Refugee & Immigration Services
At Catholic Charities, our mission
to help those that may otherwise be
lost includes welcoming newcomers to
our country. Hundreds of thousands of
refugees, immigrants, and migrants enter
the United States each year looking for a
better life. With a variety of multicultural
and multilingual services, Catholic
Charities offers these new and future
citizens support during the long process
of adjusting to their new surroundings
and becoming active participants in their
communities.
A multi-ethnic staff comprised
of professionals with diverse ethnic
backgrounds and rich life experiences
provide a wide array of services to
newcomers from all over the world.
Refugees served by Catholic Charities
are among the more than 11 million
persons worldwide who involuntarily flee
their families and homes due to fear of
persecution, imprisonment or death and
have little or no hope of returning to their
former lives.
