MOZAIC

In 2016 refugees were arriving in the Washington D.C area in numbers. We noticed a gap in the DMV areas services for refugees. Mozaic aimed at helping those in need including women, children, and refugees establish a base far from home, build communities and become self- sufficient. We are committed to creating opportunities that not only help them but also showcase their abilities and wealth of knowledge. Services offered include: Housing assistance, school enrollment, ESOl classes, vocational training, job search, educational classes, medical assistance, transportation, and more. Today, Mozaic helped more than 330+ refugee families from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere.

A refugee journey begins when they are torn away from their homes, and forced to migrate to an unfamiliar land. This requires infinite courage, strength and resilience in the face of the unknown. These men, women and children bring outstanding energy, determination, a wealth of knowledge, and new perspectives to their new societies and communities. We believe no one should face these struggles alone, so we work every day to find and create opportunities and possibilities that will make their resettlement not only smooth and beneficial for them but also for their new communities.
