We invite you to join our team by becoming a volunteer with IJC!
We are seeking for volunteers who wish to make a difference in their community.

Providing transportation
Interpreting
Organizing
Community outreach work
Fundraising with us or for us
Grant writing
Childcare

We welcome any range of skills that can help us grow, expand, and make connections!
We are a fun team to work with-with members that are local Boonies to all over the globe, LGBTQ+ friendly, and we share a deep love for our immigrant community. We would love to have you!

If you have volunteered in the past, please submit your application again. This will help us have your most up to date form of contact in our new system.

We are raising funds for two local families who need immediate assistance. Every donation goes directly to the families who are navigating detention and its fallout.

Your gift keeps local families connected when detention pulls them apart. This assistance will help cover basic needs for parents, partners, and children suddenly left on their own. IJC also assists with legal costs, travel to distant facilities, and phone calls.
