ICNA Relief’s Help for Refugees Program supports newly arrived families as they begin a new chapter in the United States. Having escaped war, persecution, or political instability, many refugees arrive with little more than hope and ICNA Relief is there to greet them with dignity, essentials, and a warm welcome.

From the moment they land, ICNA Relief offers refugees the support they need to settle, survive, and thrive. We provide food, clothing, hygiene kits, and household items while also guiding them through unfamiliar systems like healthcare, education, and employment. Our goal is not just to assist but to empower.

ICNA Relief’s Help for Refugees Program is designed to ease the transition into American life by offering resources, community, and hope:

• Essential supplies: We provide refugees with welcome kits containing food, clothing, toiletries, and household goods to help them start fresh.
• Housing support: We help families secure temporary or permanent housing and furnish their homes with dignity.
• Cultural orientation: Refugees are guided through everyday tasks like enrolling in school, finding jobs, and navigating public services.
  
• Language and job readiness: We offer ESL classes and job training workshops to prepare families for economic independence.
• Ongoing support: We stay connected, offering emotional, financial, and spiritual support as families begin to rebuild their lives.

With your support, we can continue to welcome and uplift those who’ve lost everything and are starting over. Every donation helps ICNA Relief fill homes with basic needs, offer educational support, and ensure that no refugee feels alone. Together, we can be the helping hand that says: you are not just safe you are home.
