Board & Governance

Welcome to Our Community!

At Journey Home Community, we offer transitional housing, settlement assistance and relational support to refugee claimant families.

Our vision is to welcome refugees into a community where they experience hope and belonging, meaningful relationships, a place to give and receive, a safe place to call home, and access to available systems and resources. We believe this type of welcome will promote flourishing in their new country. You can play apart in creating this type of community. Join us in drawing alongside families who arrive with few resources and fewer options, offering them community and care.
