CWN Editor's Note: The USCCB’s Migration and Refugee Services has established the Welcome Circle Program as “a community-led resettlement initiative that supports everyday Americans in taking on the responsibility of welcoming Ukrainian newcomers to their communities,” according to a program overview published in December.
“A Welcome Circle is a group of 5-20 people who come together to provide wraparound support for the family, housing, time-bound income support, basic necessities, job search advice, orientation to the community and more,” the US bishops’ conference explains. Five webinars have been scheduled between December 6 and 20 to provide additional information about the program.
