MAKE A REFERRAL

ATTENTION: Due to increasing immigration enforcement activity, JFCS has compiled resources and created videos to help immigrant communities learn valuable tips for potential interactions with ICE or border patrol, as well as guidance on how to use the ReadyNow! app. Find the videos in multiple languages here and the resources here.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the reduction of the maximum validity period for initial and renewal Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) for several categories of noncitizens. To learn more, click here.

Refugee and Immigrant Support Groups

JFCS runs peer-led support groups for refugee and immigrant communities throughout Allegheny County. The program is funded by Allegheny County Department of Human Services and is meant to help refugee and immigrant communities connect with each other and learn about their new home in Pittsburgh. Groups have been held in the Bhutanese, Iraqi, Congolese, Korean, Latina, and Turkish communities. For information on the program or current groups please contact Yesmina Salib at 412 904 5972 or ysalib@jfcspgh.org.
