New Arrivals

The collapse of the Afghan government in August 2021 has traumatized Afghans globally, causing an unprecedented refugee crisis. We are responding in multiple ways with every resource we can muster.

Afghan Wellness Program

All Afghans, especially the new arrivals, must cope with the affects of coming from a war zone. They suffer from PTSD and other afflictions. Our Wellness Program helps them heal and strengthens their mental health.

Domestic Violence Support

Afghan women and men often suffer silently from sexual and domestic violence. They often trapped and told that resources do not exist to assist them. Our Domestic Violence program provides a safe place for victims ....

Afghan Health Leadership Consortium (AHLC)

On a quarterly basis, health topics unique to the Afghan Community are discussed by medical professionals and service providers, educators and community leaders. There is an archive of past meetings.

We have partnered with the California Public Utilities Commission offering programs that help lower utility bills (TEAM & CHANGES). We also offer referrals for tax preparation, housing, and other practical assistance.

Our youth workers are bilingual, culturally competent, trained community helpers who provide many services such as after-school tutoring/mentoring and sports activities. .
