New Govt Program Focussing on Refugees

New Govt Program Focussing on Refugees

Recently, the Australian Government has agreed to a new program called ‘Community Refugee Integration and Settlement Pilot’ (CRISP), which allows small groups of Australians to directly sponsor refugee families from camps overseas. The government will cover their airfares, and the group will meet them at the airport and support them when they arrive. You can ‘settle’ the new family in your own town or suburb and make a ‘huge’ difference for someone.

If this opportunity appeals, the LCA Local Mission team is here to support you. For more info,  click here to watch a two-minute video.
