Creating welcoming communities that thrive together
The Idaho Office for Refugees is the designated organization to oversee refugee resettlement in the state of Idaho, in partnership with resettlement agencies.
Our mission is to welcome and support people granted refuge in the United States by providing opportunities for education, civic engagement, economic advancement, and belonging.
We create connections and offer programs such as Global Talent, Global Gardens, the English Language Center and the Refugee Speakers Bureau that promote well-being for New Americans and surrounding communities.
