Tomorrow, we join communities around the world in recognizing World Refugee Day and celebrating the resilience, courage, and contributions of refugees.

Every refugee journey is unique, but each story reflects the determination to build a brighter future. Today, we're sharing one story from our community.

After arriving in the United States from Ukraine with her two daughters, one mother was working hard to build a stable future when an unexpected employment setback created uncertainty for her family.

With support from COMSA, she found a new path forward. After completing caregiver training and certification support, she secured meaningful employment doing work she loves. Today, she is caring for older adults, continuing her ESL studies, and pursuing her citizenship goals while creating a brighter future for her daughters.

Her story reminds us that when refugees are welcomed and supported, they strengthen our communities in countless ways.

💙 This World Refugee Day, we celebrate the strength and resilience of refugee families and the new beginnings they are building every day.

💙 Together, We Built a Stronger Community in 2025

Because of the generosity of our donors, volunteers, community partners, and advocates, refugee and immigrant families across Northeast Wisconsin found support, opportunity, and connection last year.

Together, we provided:

✨ 1,982 case management visits
✨ 2,500+ hours of youth programming
✨ 500+ hours of English language instruction
✨ Empowerment programs helping women build confidence, skills, and brighter futures

Behind every number is a person, a family, or a child whose life was strengthened because a caring community chose to help.

And the need continues.

Already in 2026, COMSA has provided more than 800 service interactions, helping families navigate language barriers, secure employment, access healthcare, find housing, and access essential resources as they build stable, successful lives in our community.

Every interaction represents a step forward. A parent finding a job. A child succeeding in school. A family accessing healthcare. A newcomer feeling welcomed and supported in their community.

Over the coming months, we'll share more stories that highlight the people, families, and journeys behind these numbers and the impact your support makes possible.

To everyone who has supported COMSA through donations, volunteerism, partnerships, advocacy, and encouragement, thank you. Your generosity is helping build a stronger, more welcoming community for all.

Dear Friends of COMSA,

June is Refugee Month. More people are uprooted today than at any other time in history. At COMSA, we see the strength and hope of our new neighbors every day. This month, please take a moment to welcome someone new, support a newcomer family, or share a kind word. Together, we can make our community one of belonging for all.

We are so proud to celebrate Mohamed Farah, who has been a Case Manager at COMSA for nearly 10 years, and countless lives have been changed along the way.

Mohamed has helped families reunite after years of separation through immigration legal services, secured housing for countless newly arrived refugees, and connected 58+ individuals to employment in the last month alone.

His work is a living example of what it means to move people from uncertainty to opportunity.

Thank you, Mohamed, for your unwavering dedication to our community. 💚

Happy Mother's Day — to the ones who carried entire worlds on their backs.

To every immigrant and refugee mother, we have the privilege of knowing and serving at COMSA —You came to this country carrying hope heavier than any suitcase. You learned bus routes in a foreign city. You sat in government offices, clutching paperwork in a language you were still learning. You worked double shifts and still made sure dinner was on the table. You were the translator, the provider, the protector, all at once.

Some of you made that journey alone. Single mothers with no map, no family nearby, no safety net, only love for their children and a will that could move mountains.

You are the reason our communities grow stronger. You are the living proof that courage has no language barrier.

At COMSA, we see your sacrifice. We see your resilience. We see your love.

Happy Mother's Day to all the extraordinary mothers we serve — your strength inspires everything we do.

Journey of Hope: Learning, Lament and Lifted Voices

This past Saturday, our community gathered in Green Bay for an afternoon rooted in compassion, reflection, and connection.

From shared stories to moments of quiet reflection, Journey of Hope created space to better understand the realities refugees and immigrants face while also lifting voices of strength, resilience, and faith.

We closed the afternoon in a powerful way, coming together in worship and prayer alongside faith leaders from Jewish, Muslim, and Christian communities. Together, we prayed for peace in our world and left with a sense of resilient hope.

Together, we learned.
We connected.
And we were reminded of the power of community.

At COMSA, we believe welcoming others begins with listening, understanding, and showing up. Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to walk alongside our neighbors as they rebuild their lives with courage and hope.
