Church World Service of North Carolina serves the refugee and immigrant communities of central North Carolina.

Through hard work, determination, and the support of the Church World Service community, individuals and families who were once without hope are discovering the means to transform their lives. In partnership with local faith-based groups, community partners, and individual volunteers, CWS works to build a hospitable community in the United States where refugees find the tools and support they need to create new futures in peace and safety.
