Refugee Resettlement

In Fort Washington, MD, the International Rescue Committee is dedicated to empowering refugees, asylees, and vulnerable immigrants as they rebuild their lives in America. Our comprehensive program offers essential support services to meet basic needs, including furnished housing, rental assistance, and health care. We prioritize access to nutritious, affordable food, alongside English language classes and skills training in job readiness, computer literacy, and financial management. We also ensure educational opportunities for their children and provide vital social services and legal assistance towards residency and citizenship. From the moment they arrive at the airport, refugees are warmly welcomed by our compassionate case workers and volunteers, ensuring a smooth and supportive transition into their new home.
