RefugeeOne is the largest refugee resettlement agency in Illinois, dedicated to helping refugees escape war, terror, and persecution and start anew with safety, dignity, and self-reliance. With a mission to create opportunities for refugees, they have assisted over 20,500 individuals since 1982. RefugeeOne's comprehensive services focus on supporting refugees of all ages, ethnic groups, faiths, and backgrounds, helping them become independent and self-sufficient members of their new community.

From the moment refugees arrive at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, RefugeeOne provides a warm welcome, furnished apartments, English classes, job search support, mental health care, and youth programming. They also offer mentors to assist with the adjustment to life in the United States. Through their dedicated Board of Directors and staff, RefugeeOne ensures that refugees receive the necessary resources and support to establish a stable life in their new home.

By volunteering, donating money or items, or even hiring a refugee, you can join RefugeeOne in their mission to create a brighter future for those seeking refuge
