Supporting New Neighbors
Refugees from across the world come to Harrisonburg as a part of their resettlement journey. These refugees often come with little to no familiarity in American culture or knowledge of the English language.
You can help them.
Volunteers can help support our new neighbors as they find and build their new lives in Harrisonburg. You can help us continue the over 30-year tradition of welcoming refugees to Virginia!
