آیزاک هیڅ وخت د چا کور ته له مخکینی خبر ورکولو او اجازې اخیستو پرته، نه ځي

موژ به هیڅکله هم ستاسو کور ته، تاسو ته له خبر درکولو پرته نه درځو. که تاسو له آیزاک څخه کومه غوښتنه کړې وي، په لست کې یاست او لومړنی تیلیفوني اړیکې ته انتظار یاست، او یا د آیزاک اوسنی یا پخوانی پېرېدونکی یاست، د آیزاک کارکوونکی به له تاسو سره مخکې له مخکې د لیدو او یا ټیلیفوني خبرو کولو وخت ټاکي.

 

آیزاک هیچ وقت بدون آگاهی قبلی و اخذ اجازه، به خانه مردم نه میرود. 

مایان قبل از اینکه با شما تفاهم صورت گیرد، بدون اطلاع دادن به شما به درب خانه شما نخواهند آمد.  

اگر شما از آیزاک کدام درخواست همکاری نموده اید، در لیست هستید و انتظار تماس تیلیفونی را دارید و یا شما مشتری فعلی یا قبلی آیزاک هستید، کارمند آیزاک اولتر برای صحبت ابتدایی با شما، وعده ای وقت و زمان را با شما تعین خواهند کرد. 

ISAC не приходит в дома людей без предварительного уведомления и вашего разрешения/согласия. Сотрудники ISAC всегда заранее устанавливают время общения с вами, как в случае вашего ожидания первичного звонка от ISAC по поводу вашего обращения, так и в случае если вы уже являетесь или являлись клиентом ISAC. 

We’re sharing some ways that you can support local organizations that work with refugees and immigrants in our region.

Jewish Family and Community Services (JFCS)

JFCS is one of the two refugee resettlement agencies in Pittsburgh. Through our national partner, HIAS, we help newly arriving refugees get acquainted with their Pittsburgh home. After HIAS confirms the arrival of new refugees, our caseworkers must find housing and furnish it prior to the refugees’ arrival. Help our newest neighbors feel welcome by purchasing much-needed home goods for an arriving family! http://jfcspgh.org/helprefugees

AJAPO

AJAPO has been working with refugees since 2001 and is an official resettlement agency since 2013. In coordination with our national partner ECDC, we provide a continuum of care which empowers refugees and immigrants residing in the Greater Pittsburgh communities and Allegheny County to become self-sufficient and better integrated into our communities. As resettlement numbers continue to grow AJAPO seeks to expand into Community Sponsorship to assist new families in the resettlement process. If your organization, business, or religious institution is interested in partnering with AJAPO to welcome and support refugees and immigrants, please contact Matthew Hess (412-908-2344, [email protected]).
