Jesuit Refugee Service

Jesuit Refugee Service is an international organization that provides aid and services to refugees and asylum seekers. They are registered in SAM.gov as a non-profit organization. Through federal grants, Jesuit Refugee Service supports projects providing education, vocational training, and healthcare access to displaced populations.

Jesuit Refugee Service has received two prime federal project grants from the State Department's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration in recent years. A $25,000 grant in 2019 funded vocational training for 120 asylum seekers in a transit center to improve opportunities for self-employment. A $24,999 grant in 2022 is increasing access to educational and recreational resources for students at a refugee secondary school to improve educational outcomes. As a subrecipient, Jesuit Refugee Service has worked with prime grantee Jesuit Refugee Service USA on several State Department-funded projects increasing urban refugees' and asylum seekers' access to healthcare services in South Africa. Jesuit Refugee Service has also collaborated with Jesuit Refugee Service USA as a subawardee on grants aiming to improve quality, responsive, inclusive education for children in a refugee camp and to increase healthcare access for displaced populations in South Africa.
