Asylum Seekers Assistance Meeting Tonight

Past event
Oct 18, 2023, 7 to 8 PM

You are invited to the Fall Update of the Chittenden Asylum Seekers Assistance Network (CASAN) on Wednesday, October 18 from 7:00-8:00pm via Zoom. Register below to receive the link.

Our grassroots non-profit group of volunteers in Chittenden County assists local families who are in the legal process of seeking asylum. Asylum seekers, unlike refugees, are not allowed to receive most kinds of government benefits and need to wait to apply for a work permit, and so our group was formed in 2019.

We are excited to share uplifting stories about these courageous people as they build new lives in safety – families helped for a number of years who are now mostly on their own, and others assisted for shorter times that provide a needed "bridge." Learn of current needs and ways support is needed – financially and through a wide range of volunteer activities. Your help is needed to welcome these folks!

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. Hope to see you there!
