Lutheran Services Refugee & Immigrant Program

All refugees are automatically enrolled in the Reception and Placement Program. This program is designed to help new arrivals become acclimated to life in the United States. LSC case managers work with families and co-sponsoring organizations to:

• Arrange housing

• Facilitate access to social services and public benefits

• Arrange health screenings and access to health care

• Assist with school enrollment

• Provide cultural education and self-sufficiency planning

• Assist with communication needs

• Provide support and welcome to all clients

LSC also ensures that all newly arrived refugees have access to English language classes or to one-on-one tutoring to help them acquire the necessary language skills they need to thrive in their new home.
