We provide services that last beyond just the initial arrival for families, youth, children, and individuals rebuilding their lives in the D.C. metro area. Motivated daily by our belief in the inherent dignity of all, LSSNCA’s innovative, participant-informed programs serve refugees, forced migrants, immigrants, children, and youth, as well as underserved communities, by filling in the gaps. 

Your support directly assists with:

  • Meals

  • Employment
  • Education
  • Immigration support
  • Mental health services
  • Contributes to building a community of well-being where people thrive
