RefugeeOne has been serving Uptown for 30 years. According to its website,
"For 30 years, RefugeeOne has provided a full range of services to refugees brought to the United States by the U.S. Federal government for resettlement in the Chicago metropolitan area. The refugees fled their homelands out of fear due to war or persecution. RefugeeOne helps them find housing, learn English and acclimate to American culture. We work with them to develop computer and other employable skills to find jobs. We help them obtain medical and other care, access the public school system for their children, apply for citizenship, and obtain care for elderly family members. Last year RefugeeOne welcomed hundreds of refugees -- mostly Bhutanese, Burmese and lesser numbers from Iraq and various African countries. We welcomed approximately 35% of all refugees resettled in the Chicago area."
