Hosting and Supporting Refugees Locally

We are gathering information and contacts on Ukrainian arrivals in RI, and we want to be ready to host and support them. The survey below is an attempt to gather names of those who want to host and those who cannot host, but would like to support the hosts in various ways. This survey does not COMMIT you to anything, but will give us a starting point.

Note: We work with other RI organizations to support recent arrivals — see list on We Support page

ACTION ITEM: Please contact your Congressional delegation to expedite granting visas to Ukrainian evacuees, expand access, and expedite work permit processing!
