Member Duties : Journey's End Refugee Services Inc. is a community-based organization that welcomes refugees to Western New York without regard to ethnic origin or creed and assists them to become healthy, independent, and contributing members of our community and now fall into poverty. Journey’s End serves its clients through education, cultural orientation, case management, employment search and training, immigration legal services, translation, and interpretation. The AmeriCorps VISTA Refugee and Asylee Mentoring Outreach Coordinator will work closely with staff to develop volunteer recruitment and retention strategies, maximize, and build upon existing outreach practices. Additionally, VISTA will develop and create a financial literacy program to help educate Journey’s End clients on the importance of understanding and applying financial management skills.
