Our social mentoring program gives you the skills you need to join thrive in your new community. Learn about things like American customs, local organizations, all while connecting with other immigrants along the way.
What will I learn in the sessions?
We’ll help you tackle issues like how to rent an apartment, where to look for work, how to get health insurance, and much much more.
How do I participate?
Participants typically join us for a period of 6 months, either with a small group at one of our centers or individually with a designated social mentor.
When are the sessions?
We hold our sessions on Saturdays at our center in Sarasota. Join us there or set up a time to work one-on-one with your mentor.
