Goal
Since 2017, SHC has warmly embraced hundreds of refugees and immigrants from more than 20 countries. Thousands of newcomers continue to arrive in our area after long and harrowing journeys. SHC is helping those families begin to rebuild their lives.
Through referrals from resettlement agencies and word of mouth within the refugee community, many have joined existing SHC programs to learn English, prepare for citizenship, and receive employment coaching. SHC programs also help preschool children become Kindergarten ready, provide after-school tutoring, and can provide referrals for legal services or other individualized needs.
SHC has also created new programs to meet unmet needs. Our English classes are designed for the most vulnerable and isolated adult learners, many of who have little to no formal education; SHC has distributed micro-grants to assist new families with the cost of housing, and we have created new staff positions to build bridges to existing programs for newcomers.
We need your support to sustain our program capacity. You can help.
