Provide Support Through Housing & Employment
Our network connects newly arrived immigrants and refugees with compassionate landlords and employers to assist with the transition of resettlement.
Join our Landlord Network
The Immigrant Welcome Network of Johnson County partners with compassionate landlords, host families, and community mentors to help connect immigrant and refugee families with safe, stable housing. We facilitate open conversations throughout the housing process, helping address misconceptions, build trust, and create fair, mutually beneficial agreements. Through these collaborative partnerships, we provide welcoming homes while fostering stronger relationships between newcomers and the broader community.
Join Our Employer Network
IThe IWNJC engages with enthusiastic employers that are open to hiring immigrants and refugees with limited English proficiency who have chosen Johnson County as their new residence. We understand how difficult it can be to find employment for those with limited English skills, but the IWNJC knows that an inclusive workforce brings a stronger economy. That’s why the IWNJC assists with language translation during workplace orientation and matches a community member with the newly hired employee for a full day of on-the-job training in a language they can understand.
