Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Last updated on August 17, 2009

When refugees come to the U.S. they are anxious to get settled and find jobs. RIAC is looking for a volunteer who can help make connections with employers - for entry level jobs or donations. This volunteer will work closely with the resettlement coordinator to ensure that new refugees get the help they need to get into the job market. He/she will organize resources/donations and maintain information related to local training and job opportunities.
