The IRC in Phoenix is committed to bringing our refugee clients from harm to home. As a part of that commitment, we provide them with necessities – such as clothing and household items – they will need to start rebuilding their lives here. To do this, the IRC relies on donated items from community partners that are passed into the hands of our clients free of charge either through our Resettlement Shop or as part of an initial apartment setup.

We continue to work alongside refugee communities and other Ukrainian partners and groups to welcome and support Ukrainians and other refugees in urgent need of safety. We plan to welcome Ukrainian newcomers and provide as much support as we can where needed. Such support may include housing, food security, youth education enrollment, and employment and career efforts. The depth and scope of IRCs work is paramount and immense to refugees, unaccompanied minors, victims of abuse, survivors of human trafficking, and asylees.
