New Americans Community Referral Services

At NACS, we apply hands-on and holistic methods in assisting refugees and immigrants. We go that extra mile to locate specific services and we make certain that our clients can utilize all identified resource. To meet this need, we provide transportation, communication assistance, day care location, and other culturally relevant support as needed.

Because we seek to bridge gaps between existing services, we do not try to reinvent the wheel as far as social service provisions are concerned. NACS maintains an updated list of refugee service providers and resources in Minnesota so that we can best assist our clients in seeking and obtaining the most relevant assistance. NACS also supports several collaborative partnerships with local service agencies allowing our advocacy and assistance to best benefit the refugees and immigrants in our community.
