This one-year award, effective October 1, 2024, will fund the organization's efforts to arrange housing, deliver cultural orientation, offer employment assistance, and facilitate other support aimed at achieving early self-sufficiency for newly arrived refugees across the country through the organization's nationwide faith-based nonprofit network. As a long-standing recipient of substantial federal grant funding for refugee and migrant resettlement, the Society of the Protestant Church leverages its extensive infrastructure and affiliates to integrate newcomers into local communities.
