Church World Service

CWS NorCal has opened its Welcome Center in Walnut Creek, CA to serve refugees, immigrants, and asylees in Northern California. CWS’s office in Walnut Creek will help refugees resettle, form long-lasting relationships in the community and maintain their own basic needs in a sustainable lifestyle. Our office will serve as a bridge from their former life in their home country to a new set of cultural, linguistic, and practical skills that will enable them to be successful in Northern California. CWS NorCal operates several programs to serve the vulnerable population, including unaccompanied children who mostly come through the southern border, and refugees, immigrants, and asylees families and individuals.
