What this is
IM Houston has resettled refugees from over 40 countries for 30+ years.
Over 90% of refugee clients become self-sufficient within a year through comprehensive support that includes everything from initial housing to citizenship guidance.
IM Houston provides complete resettlement support for refugee families, covering housing and basic needs when they first arrive, cultural orientation to help them navigate their new community, job training and employment connections, and legal services to help them become U.S. citizens.
The organization works directly with the U.S. State Department and has been doing this work for over three decades.

The program operates in Houston, with offices in the 77002 area downtown.

Why it matters
More than helping people survive, this creates pathways for refugee families to truly rebuild their lives here. With 90% of clients becoming self-sufficient within a year, it strengthens Houston's workforce while helping newcomers from over 40 countries find belonging in their new home.
How to get this
IM Houston offers direct services to refugees and also welcomes volunteers who want to serve as family mentors, employment guides, translators, or case management support. The organization currently serves more Afghan refugees than any other local Houston agency.
