Funded by the Department of State's Bureau for Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), the United States Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP) Capacity Building (CB) team aims to increase the overall capacity of the US Reception and Placement (R&P) program through local and national-level partnerships. The R&P program provides support for newly arrived refugees during their initial resettlement period as they transition into a state of self-sufficiency.

The USRAP CB team provides targeted technical assistance and guidance to both national and locally based non-profit organizations working to expand the resettlement network across the US. On the national level, the team assists organizations with strategic planning, systems strengthening and knowledge management as they grow their own national resettlement networks. On the local level (and following due diligence procedures) the team provides support to non-profits across the US aiming to establish R&P programming, from the PRM application process through approval as an R&P implementing partner affiliate and beyond. For the first 6-12 months following approval, these local partners are trained and onboarded to the R&P program before transitioning to fully established partner affiliates within our resettlement network.

They will work directly under the supervision and guidance of the Capacity Building team. NOTE: This role is eligible for BSW/MSW practicum supervision, given approval from the applicant's institution.

COMMITMENT: At least 4-5 months, 15 hours per week minimum. A variety of weekday schedules are acceptable, so long as hours align within a standard 9 AM - 5 PM timeframe, any US time zone.
