About
Since 1988, Exodus World Service has mobilized the Christian community across Chicagoland to welcome and befriend refugees.
Description
As a New Neighbor, you can help ease the loneliness and isolation that many refugees experience when resettling in a new country. Volunteers help refugees with cultural hurdles such as language, academics, and citizenship. Sharing these experiences paves the way for beautiful, mutual friendships.
Details
New Neighbor volunteers visit a refugee family or individual once a week for 3 months, walking beside them as a friend in their new community. You can volunteer as an individual, family, small group, or church, and training is provided.
Volunteers should be able to regularly commute to Chicago's far northside neighborhoods (West Ridge, Rogers Park). Scheduling is flexible to your availability, and no additional language skills are required.
Ubicación
¿Cómo llegar?
