What is United for Refugees?

United for Refugees is a comprehensive service designed to support refugees nationally. We can assist advisors and key workers currently working with refugees by providing tailored employment support to help refugees find and secure meaningful work. Our service includes integration assistance, ESOL support and translation assistance from our experienced Employment Advisors, many of whom have lived refugee experience.
