RESETTLEMENT. SELF-SUFFICIENCY. INTEGRATION.

Here to Serve

​The Agency for New Americans (ANA) is here to help refugees achieve self-sufficiency in their new lives by providing the skills, education, and support necessary during their resettlement period.
​
Our mission is to improve the educational, social and economic well-being of new Americans and communities in which they live by creating individual, agency and public/private partnerships. ​

Advocacy

Your voice matters! While Boise is a welcoming city for refugees, we still have work to do. Here are some ways you can stand up and advocate for refugees
  • Speak up: Welcome and advocate for refugees in your community whenever possible
  • Actions speak more than words: Call or send letters to you local, state, and federal legislators in support for refugees
 ​For more information, visit the Refugee Council  USA's Advocacy Guide.

Building Community

​The community of Boise, Idaho has made a commitment to welcoming refugees through its impressive Refugee Resource Strategic Community Plan.

​Episcopal Migration Ministries' affiliate partners at the Agency for New Americans have partnered with city agencies, transportation officials, health care providers and many other stakeholders to adopt a model of communication and creative problem solving that is benefiting the entire community.

REACH Youth Mentoring Program

​The Refugees Empowered to Achieve (REACH) Program gives our community the unique opportunity to mentor refugee youth ages 15-24 on a consistent basis.

As a mentor, you commit to spending 4-6 hours per month during which you help your mentee work towards reaching their educational and vocational goals.
We are currently recruiting both Mentors and Mentees for the project.

For more information, visit our REACH Youth Mentor page or fill out an online application.

New Americans in Boise

The city of Boise is a welcoming community made up of a beautifully diverse population. For years, it has served as a safe harbor for refugees, not only as a destination on their long journey to find asylum, but also as a place to call home.
