Summary:
As a volunteer with the R&P program, you will support the case management team in helping newly arrived refugees during their initial resettlement period. Responsibilities include assisting with documentation, organizing case files, helping with core service delivery (such as arranging transportation and setting up housing), and performing light administrative tasks. Volunteers will also assist with preparing materials for cultural orientation sessions and help clients with the completion of paperwork related to public benefits and social services. This is an excellent opportunity for those interested in refugee services and social work.
Example tasks:
- Assist with airport pickups, home visits, and basic welfare checks
- Organize and maintain client case files
- Help with service delivery documentation and case management support
- Perform clerical tasks like data entry and preparing documents
