Refugee Resettlement

The International Rescue Committee in Temple Hills, MD, is dedicated to empowering refugees, asylees, victims of human trafficking, and survivors of torture as they embark on their new lives in America. Our comprehensive services are designed to address the essential needs of these individuals, including providing furnished homes, assistance with rent, access to health care, and nutritious, affordable food. We also offer English language classes and resources to help build job readiness, computer skills, and financial literacy, ensuring that families get the education and social services they need for a successful transition. Additionally, our legal services support residents on their path to citizenship. From the moment they arrive at the airport, refugees are warmly welcomed by our dedicated case workers and volunteers, ensuring that their journey is as supportive and comfortable as possible.
