About the event
Join us for an informative online session about the Circle of Welcome, a co-sponsorship program that invites the community to engage in Lutheran Social Services' mission of welcoming newcomers. This program offers a unique opportunity for local community groups to form a special relationship with a refugee family and support their journey in the U.S.
As Co-Sponsors, community groups collaborate with Lutheran Social Services to walk alongside a refugee family for six months, serving as community guides and friends. This partnership fosters meaningful connections and provides essential support during the family's resettlement process.
During this session, you'll learn about:
The structure and goals of the Circle of Welcome program
The roles and responsibilities of Co-Sponsors
The impact of your involvement on refugee families and the community
