Get Involved​!
There’s a lot of work that goes into mutual aid between asylum seekers and older residents, and that means there’s lots of ways for people to get involved! You can support the work that we do as a network volunteer, a housing sponsor, or with a financial contribution.
 
 Network Volunteer:
All volunteers come to an orientation and training (~2 hrs) to learn about our organization, strategy and values. We  run these monthly. If you’d like to get involved, please fill out this form, and then we’ll contact you about our next training dates:

Housing Sponsor:
Newly arrived asylum seekers need housing, and often require a sponsor to help get out of detention. Sometimes, asylum seekers live with individuals and families in an extra bedroom in the house. Other times, various other arrangements are possible. Are you interested in this? Please fill out our housing sponsor form. We’ll contact you and discuss various ways we may be able to proceed:
