Our Community Outreach

International Friendship Centers

Hope Care and Beyond (HCB), in partnership with local community leadership organizations and volunteers, operates community resource hubs known as International Friendship Centers (IFCs).

It is through these centers that refugee and immigrant families/individuals can access basic needs pantries for assistance with food, clothing, and basic house wares, critically important during their first period of arrival due to additional hurdles that sometimes must be cleared, such as waiting on necessary documentation or working out transportation logistics, before they are able to begin work.

In addition to helping families bridge gaps in food insecurity and other basic needs, immigrant and refugee families and individuals are also able to access quality-of-life building resources and classes such as English as a second language (ESL), citizenship, cultural assimilation and diversity classes, occupational skills, basic health care, and more, all important preparatory training for entering the workforce.
We base IFCs in the communities where there is recognized need and where refugee and immigrant families/individuals live.

Building community through building relationships is a core value that HCB holds closely. We realize that in order for our programming to remain successful, it is important that the native-born communities and international families/individuals see themselves as allies, essential to creating and growing their communities, together. As such, we employ a program model that relies heavily on community engagement through volunteerism which encourages and builds upon involvement from the local communities that refugee and immigrant families/individuals live in.

HCB desires to foster an environment in which immigrants, refugees, and the native born each sees each other as partners in building stable, vibrant, and thriving communities.
