This spring, representatives from Luther Social Services will be coming to Salem for a 3 part presentation surrounding Refugee Services here in Minnesota. Refugee families have escaped war, religious persecution and violence in their homes — living through what most of us could not imagine, including starvation, desperation in refugee camps and sickness with limited to no medical care.

When refugees arrive in Minnesota, they come with very little — usually what they can fit in a suitcase and the clothes they are wearing. They need a place to live, a job to sustain their families and emotional support to recover from losses and traumatic experiences they have endured.  

Come and learn more about what we as Minnesotans can do and how to become involved.
