Member Duties : Journey's End Refugee Services is a community-based organization that welcomes refugees to Western NY without regard to ethnic origin or creed and assists them to become healthy, independent, and contributing members of our community. Journey’s End serves its clients through education, cultural orientation, case management, employment search and training, immigration legal services, translation and interpretation. The Refugee and Asylee Mentoring Program (RAMP) serves young refugees, aged 18-24, by matching them with qualified adult mentors that can help them meet their personal, educational, and professional goals.Through weekly activities and workshops, program outcomes encourage civic & social engagement, promote health and financial literacy, and support educational and vocational advancement. The VISTA would support this program by conducting volunteer recruitment and retention, outreach in the community, and creating financial literacy and career development programming.
