What is a refugee?

A refugee is a person who has been forced to flee their home country due to war, persecution, violence, or other life-threatening circumstances. Refugees often cannot return home safely because of their race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. International law, including the 1951 Refugee Convention, provides protection and certain rights to refugees. They may seek asylum in another country and are entitled to humanitarian assistance and protection until it is safe for them to return or they are resettled elsewhere.

What support and collaboration can a Refugee Case Worker expect when assisting newly arrived refugees?

As a Refugee Case Worker, you will typically work within a multidisciplinary team that includes social workers, legal advisors, health professionals, and community volunteers. Collaboration is essential to provide holistic support, from securing housing and employment to facilitating access to healthcare and education. Regular team meetings and coordinated case management are common, ensuring each refugee's unique needs are addressed efficiently. Navigating cultural differences and complex bureaucratic processes can be challenging, but ongoing training and peer support are often available to help you succeed and grow in the role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Refugee Resettlement Case Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Refugee Resettlement Case Manager, you need a background in social work, human services, or a related field, often with a relevant degree or certification. Familiarity with case management software, immigration documentation systems, and government or NGO protocols is typically required. Exceptional cultural sensitivity, problem-solving, and communication skills help build trust with clients and coordinate support services. These abilities are essential for effectively guiding refugees through complex resettlement processes and helping them achieve self-sufficiency.

Organizational Description:

Journey's End Refugee Services, Inc. is an equal opportunity employer and seeks to employ the best-qualified personnel without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, citizenship, age, sex, or marital status, or any other reason prohibited by law.

Journey’s End Refugee Services, Inc. is a refugee resettlement and immigration services

provider for the Western New York Region. Journey’s End works to assist newly arriving

refugees to learn English, find gainful employment and avoid dependency on social services.

Project Description:

The Refugee and Asylee Mentoring Program (RAMP) is a mentoring program designed to help refugee youth learn and adapt to American culture, while also maintaining and embracing their own heritage by matching them with adult mentors from their local community. Journey’s End will recruit, train, and provide refugee teenagers ages 15 – 17 and young adults ages 18-24 with mentors who have the skills to help them reach their full potential as young adults and ease their social and economic integration into our community. Through programs, workshops, and activities specifically designed by Journey’s End for refugee youth, RAMP addresses both the social needs and the barriers to adjusting to a new culture that refugee youth typically face. Journey’s End provides a comprehensive program which incorporates several youth development principles such as: feeling connected, safe and welcomed; enjoying multiple caring relationships with peers and adults; participating in their communities; receiving the opportunities and supports to achieve high standards of learning resulting in higher expectations of themselves; developing and enhancing their physical, cognitive, emotional and social skills with experiential learning opportunities; and being exposed to positive social norms that facilitate engagement and reduce risk-taking behaviors.

· Create and maintain volunteer and client files, and assist with data tracking and grant reporting

· Assist with program evaluation, acquiring participant feedback and documenting development of the mentor program

· Assist with hosting community education events as outlined in the grant contract

· Other duties as required.
