Refugee Resettlement

While Refuge KC is not a resettlement agency, we are happy to share our city with several great refugee resettlement agencies. Among these agencies are:

• Jewish Vocational Services (JVS) – “JVS engages, encourages, and empowers people to achieve social, cultural, and economic integration. We assist individuals and families in achieving self-reliance by providing support, personal development, employment and training services.” www.jvskc.org​​
• Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas – “Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas’ Refugee and Immigration Services programming has more than 35 years of experience in resettling refugees in the state of Kansas. The agency is seen as the area expert on refugee resettlement and provides information to numerous community agencies that have contact with refugees. While health departments, SRS, ESL schools, mental health providers, and other agencies have contact with refugees to meet specific needs, Catholic Charities is truly a point of information, referral, service provision, and service coordination of refugees in the area.” www.catholiccharitiesks.org
