Switchboard is a training and technical assistance project helping to build capacity in resettlement services across the U.S.
We offer tools and training to service providers, newcomers, state agencies, and local communities to strengthen support for newcomers and promote integration.
Switchboard offers an online resource library, learning opportunities, research, and personalized technical assistance covering a range of topics related to the newcomer experience. In addition, we provide trusted information for newcomers through Settle In and for community members through the Switchboard Community Support Line. Switchboard is implemented by the International Rescue Committee (IRC).
