Empowering Refugee and Immigrant Youth

Our Youth Program helps refugee and immigrant youth ages 8–20 strengthen their social-emotional skills, develop positive character, and prepare for future educational and professional opportunities.

The program provides a welcoming environment where young people can connect with peers who share similar experiences. Through supportive activities and culturally relevant programming, participants receive guidance as they adjust to their new community and navigate the challenges that come with building a life in a new home.

Building Trust and Connecting Communities with Resources

Our Community Outreach Program conducts door-to-door home visits to build trusted relationships, better understand community needs, and connect individuals and families with helpful information and resources.

This program allows MELCORR to reach people who may be unable to visit our office because of transportation, mobility, language, scheduling, or other barriers. During these visits, our team may assess social determinants of health, provide Know Your Rights education, and help individuals establish connections with community-based services.
