Refugee Community Alliance

Ukrainian Support Project

USP is an interdenominational volunteer group formed to support a Ukrainian family to resettle to the safety of the United States. Our group is an off-shoot of Reading POWIR (People Organized to Welcome Immigrants and Refugees) which has helped resettle 3 refugee families- 2 Afghan families and 1 Ethiopian family that had lived in a Kenyan refugee camp for 12 years. Several of the USP team have been part of Reading POWIR, and we bring our experience and expertise to the work of USP. RCA-USP is an official Welcome Circle connected to the Uniting4Ukraine national effort. We benefit from support from the Refugee and Immigration Services division of Catholic Charities, a major refugee resettlement organization in MA, which is encouraging the development of Welcome Circles.
