When refugees arrive in the Twin Cities they face many challenges, including navigating our transportation system, adjusting to new customs, and often learning a new language. Having a friend can make all the difference in bolstering their courage to try new things! Volunteer Befrienders provide the social support that greatly increases a refugee’s ability to transition to self-sufficiency. In the process, Befrienders will learn about their refugee friend’s culture and experience our community through the lens of their refugee friend.
