Multiply Your Impact
Welcoming and resettling refugees takes a village: community support and involvement make the difference between our new neighbors thriving in their new homes, or merely surviving.
Refugee Reception & Placement Program
The U.S. State Department contracts with local refugee resettlement agencies to prepare for and welcome newly-arrived refugees to communities across the country. This Reception and Placement program serves refugees during their first 90 days in the U.S. through securing and furnishing housing and providing cultural orientation, community navigation support, and basic needs assistance. As a refugee resettlement agency, CWS follows strict guidelines to provide core services.
Matching Grant
The Matching Grant Program is an eight-month employment program that provides intensive case management services to help clients achieve economic self-sufficiency. This program provides case management services, employment services, and financial assistance along with other useful resources, such as English as a Second Language courses and Job Readiness training.
