Through our Reception & Placement (R&P) program, the CWS resettlement team provides initial welcome and core services to new neighbors within the first 90 days after arrival. R&P services include case management, the provision of housing, food, and clothing; placement in ESL and cultural orientation classes; medical appointments; registration in selective service; enrollment of children in school, and assistance to obtain social security cards, among others.

Initial services provided in the beginning of the R&P period are focused on material needs and survival while core services that are required towards the end of the R&P period are geared towards empowering new neighbors to achieve self-sufficiency
