Breaking poverty’s grip one home, one life at a time. We welcome refugees with housing, legal aid, jobs, and language classes so they can build a new life.
At the Johnson Alice Foundation, we believe that every person deserves a place to call home—regardless of where they were born or why they had to leave. Our Refugee & Immigrant Support program walks alongside individuals and families who have fled war, persecution, poverty, or disaster, helping them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
We understand that arriving in a new country is overwhelming—the language is unfamiliar, the systems are confusing, and the future feels uncertain. That is why we offer comprehensive, compassionate support that addresses every aspect of resettlement:
- Safe Housing: We secure stable, affordable housing so families have a roof over their heads from day one.
- Legal Aid: We connect refugees with legal experts to navigate asylum claims, work permits, and citizenship pathways.
- Language Classes: We provide English and local language courses to break down communication barriers.
- Job Placement: We help adults find meaningful employment through skills assessment, resume building, and employer connections.
- Cultural Orientation: We offer guidance on local customs, systems, and community resources to ease the transition.
- Mental Health Support: We provide counseling for trauma, loss, and the stress of displacement.
- Family Reunification: We assist in bringing separated loved ones back together.
Our goal is not just to help refugees survive—but to help them thrive. We believe that when we welcome the stranger, we enrich our communities with diversity, resilience, and shared humanity.
Breaking poverty’s grip one home, one life at a time. Because a new beginning starts with a warm welcome.
