Proudly Serving Refugee and Immigrant Communities

THE VISION

We believe immigrants and refugees regardless of gender, country of origin, age, sexual orientation, ability or religious belief have freedom to thrive and live happy, healthy and fulfilling lives. We acknowledge and amplify the voice and stories of survivors of domestic violence and advocate for social and economic justice. We respect and honor culture through tolerance, understanding and empathy and create safe and inclusive spaces for growth, development and discourse. We empower refugees and immigrants to overcome barriers that limit their success by encouraging their personal and professional growth. We promote and encourage healthy relationships, community building, and community development through social engagement and positive community support systems.

 

THE MISSION

We promote peaceful, loving, and safe relationships within the diverse immigrant and refugee communities of San Diego. This is accomplished through services and strategies that build resilience and self-sufficiency, support healing from trauma and violence, and advocacy for equity and justice.
