WHAT WE DO

Family Mentors & Adult Education

Mentors provide guidance and support to refugees through social interaction, cultural sharing, and English conversation. 

Resilient Youth

Volunteers are matched with English language learners at schools to assist with homework, help build English skills and confidence, and serve as positive role models.

Community Outreach & Advocacy

This program provides New Americans and members of the Greater Grand Forks community opportunities to learn more about our community and become engaged in meaningful ways.
