The mission of Sevier United is to help impoverished individuals/families and immigrants that live in Sevier County with emergency supplies, language, assistant, and connections to resources and education, given them the skills and knowledge needed to become self-sustaining and culturally, integrated members of our community.

As part of our educational efforts, we keep the community informed about new governmental and federal laws. However, we do not offer political commentary or engagement in political discussions. 

Please see new update from the State.
