Education Team
Navigating the educational system and mastering a new language are two of the most significant hurdles for newly-arrived families. As they strive to build a new life, access to quality education and language support is crucial for their children’s success and their own integration into the community.
Our Educational Assistance Team Volunteers are at the heart of this transformative support. By guiding families through the school enrollment process and providing essential English language tutoring, you will help unlock educational opportunities and facilitate a smoother transition for both students and parents.
