Our Programs & Services
Through our distinct program areas we continue to build bridges for our newest neighbors.
Hello Neighbor started with the simple mission to improve the lives of recently resettled refugees and immigrants in Pittsburgh by matching them with dedicated neighbors to guide and support them in their new lives. But since our start in 2017, we have grown in ways we could never have imagined.
Resettlement
Providing our refugee and immigrant neighbors with a warm welcome and network of support from day one.
Mentorship
Our cornerstone program that strategically matches local Pittsburghers with our newest neighbors to form a relationship of friendship and welcoming.
Education
We know that education empowers our community. In addition to Study Buddy, our youth tutoring program, we are expanding our reach with with two pilot projects: Little Neighbors for ages 0-5 and ESL Classes for adults 18+.
Health & Stabilization
Supporting vulnerable refugees and immigrants with individualized and culturally responsive support to enhance their sense of stability and belonging in Pittsburgh.
Along with our Resettlement, Education & Community Empowerment, and Health & Stabilization, we launched The Hello Neighbor Network in October 2019.
Hello Neighbor Network
The Network is a coalition of grassroots organizations working with refugees and immigrants in the U.S. that come together to grow and inspire change.
