Refugee Support

Our team of refugee specialists, including many with a refugee background, can help you find a job, build your career and make a plan for the future. We can help you search and apply for jobs, write your resume, prepare for interviews and adjust to the culture and requirements at your workplace.

At the Utah Refugee Center you can participate in job fairs where you can meet with employers. You can also attend job skills workshops and training programs that can help you learn important skills and further your career.

We understand that you face many challenges in coming to a new country as a refugee. We can help you access resources for food, housing and more.

Resources include assistance for food, child care, medical care and youth services, help if you are in crisis, housing and navigating health and mental health resources.

The Utah Refugee Center is a community center where refugees can come for training and education classes. Some of these programs include adult programs like leadership skills, IT and career training, sewing, English and citizenship, financial management and entrepreneurship, community development and senior wellness. We also have youth programs for school age children and college students including leadership and tech classes, mentoring and internships, sports, afterschool programs and college preparation.

For a complete list of programs and for current start dates, please contact the Refugee Services Office, or visit the programming page of the Refugee Services website for more information. You can also fill out the program interest form and we will reach out to you when a program is available.
