Since 1979, we have been working alongside the community to welcome refugees and immigrants to Southern California. For decades, we have put biblical teachings about hospitality into practice, fostered friendships, created welcoming communities, and overcome fear with kindness.
At World Relief Southern California, we come alongside immigrants and refugees in vulnerable situations as they rebuild their lives in the United States. For over 34 years, we’ve been welcoming immigrants across Southern California. For decades, we have empowered churches, community organizations, and people like you to adapt to the challenges of the moment for the sake of refugees. As needs have increased in recent years, we have expanded our work beyond refugees to include all immigrants in vulnerable situations.
Today, World Relief SoCal is part of a national network of offices through which over 500,000 immigrants and refugees have been welcomed into this country.
