Community Sponsorship Models

Community sponsorship models refer to initiatives where local groups or communities support newcomers, such as refugees or migrants, to settle and integrate into their new environment. This often involves providing resources like accommodation, financial assistance, social connections, and guidance. These models encourage active participation from the community, fostering a welcoming atmosphere and supporting the newcomers’ self-sufficiency. Benefits include stronger community ties and shared cultural understanding, while helping individuals find safety, employment, and a sense of belonging in their new homes.
