Refugee Support Services (RSS)

RSS is primarily an employability program.

The Immigration and Nationality Act specifies that in providing refugee assistance, “employable refugees should be placed on jobs as soon as possible after their arrival in the United States.” RSS services are aimed at addressing barriers to employment and integration into the United States.

The Support Services focus on:

Employability Assessment

Vocational Training & Skills Recertification

Job Maintenance

Training & Job Development

Job Placement
