    Mentor an Adult Refugee

    Want to support refugees in your community? In the last year, RefugeeOne has welcomed over 700 refugees from all over the world to Chicago - and we need your support to help them adjust to life in their new home!

    Volunteers in our In-Home Adult Mentorship program will support an adult refugee (25+) as they build a life in Chicago! You will be matched 1:1 with a recently arrived refugee to support them in their transition to life in Chicago. Mentors help with a range of things, including:

    • Practicing English
    • Navigating the CTA
    • Developing community connections and accessing local resources
    • Sharing culture and hobbies
    • ...and more!

    Most importantly, you'll serve as a friend and guide to a newcomer.

    No additional languages skills required, flexible scheduling to match your availability.

    Interested? Connect with us on VolunteerMatch or email Volunteer Coordinator Cate at volunteer@refugeeone.org!
