About Us

History
The Raleigh Field Office of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) was established in 2007 as a local response to the global refugee crisis. Our field office has assisted hundreds of refugees resettle into the Triangle area of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill in North Carolina. The Raleigh Field Office helps refugees and immigrants gain personal independence and economic self-sufficiency so they may become contributing members of their new communities and are able participants in all aspects of American life.

Mission
The mission of the USCRI Raleigh Field Office is to bring hope and opportunity to the lives of refugees and immigrants through community advocacy, refugee community orientation and skills development. We act to defend human rights, promote self-sufficiency and education, and forge community partnerships through a full range of services and programs.
