What an exciting soccer match last night in High Point! The match ended in a shoot-out. Thank you Evan McIntyre and Carolina Core for the tickets. The Refugee School Impact (RSI) team, Angel Katona, and refugee youth had a great time. Getting autographs from the players on the pitch after the match was so much fun!

Eid al-Adha Mubarak to everyone, Muslim communities, families, and everyone celebrating around the world.
🌙🕌✨🕋🌙🤍✨✨

May Allah accept your prayers and sacrifices, and bless you with peace, happiness, and good health.
Hope everyone has a blessed Eid and enjoys this beautiful celebration with family and loved ones.✨✨

And who knows… there may even be a fun little prize waiting for those who join in during the event. 😉🎉

We wanted to send a huge thank you to Attorney Shaun Arnold from Legal Aid for coming to educate us here at NAI last month on housing concerns that may impact our clients. We are incredibly grateful to partner with such a valuable community resource that helps strengthen both our team and the clients we serve. Partnerships like these make our community stronger together. 💙

Did you know that NAI provides wraparound support services to refugees from Burlington/Alamance County to Salisbury/Rowan County?

This Burlington client is happy that her daughter will start Kindergarten next year. She is excited to join the Youth Mentoring (YM) program for 16-24 year old youth.

With the Refugee School Impact (RSI) and YM programs she would like to learn more about the public library 📚, explore educational opportunities other than high school, and go to the Zoo!
