The IRC in Tucson’s New Roots program is dedicated to improving food security of refugees and aid in their community integration and self-sufficiency.

The IRC in Salt Lake City offers several group volunteer opportunities ranging from group work days at our New Roots farm or garden sites, helping out at the Goat Ranch, cleaning up Spice Kitchen and more. Gather your colleagues, friends, family or church group and get involved!

Although the battle to retake Mosul is now over, this is not the end of suffering for residents who endured three years of ISIS control. Throughout the battle more than one million people were forced to flee their homes; over 825,000 remain displaced.

This World Refugee Day, we are reaching back in history and taking inspiration from seven extraordinary individuals, among many over the years, who have stood with refugees. They have shown that progress is possible, even when the odds can feel too great to overcome.

Over the past year, the IRC in Salt Lake City has completed 100 citizenship applications and has supported 46 individuals to become new U.S. citizens. Learn about how the immigration team has impacted this support!
