OUR MISSION
To welcome newly arrived refugee and immigrant children and their families. We foster connections and community through youth and family-centered programs, education and tutoring, outreach, and emergency assistance.
We envision a world where all refugee children have opportunities to develop to their highest potential through access to education, the arts, and the outdoors and to reignite hope for a bright future.
