Technical Assistance
The Technical Assistance Program provides assistance to refugee-serving organizations. The technical assistance providers have expertise in the following areas: outreach to asylees, child welfare, economic development, English language training, employment, housing, microenterprise development, financial planning and asset development, and services to Ethnic Community Self-Help organizations or Mutual Assistance Associations (MAA’s).
This technical assistance is made available to the entire ORR service network. Technical assistance is provided by on-site visits, conference calls, publications, workshops, performance measure development, resource identification, collaboration, and trainings specific to the needs of the refugee serving organization. ORR awarded ten grants totaling just over $2 million in FY 2006.
