Prepare to welcome refugees in your community. Take the training!
This training serves as a baseline for engaging with the Welcome Corps as a private sponsor group. Participants will receive both in-depth information about providing core sponsorship services (e.g., housing, benefits and services access, cultural adjustment, etc.) and an overview of how to help facilitate the long-term integration of refugees. Other topics include key mindsets for sponsors, the logistics of forming a private sponsor group, fundraising, and resiliency-building.
At least one member of the private sponsor group must complete the training for application approval; however, all group members are strongly encouraged to participate.
If you are applying to sponsor someone you know, get ready with this optional tutorial.
