YOU support the mission. YOU change lives.

Make a meaningful impact by helping ensure newly-arrived children are safe, supported, and cared for as they embark on their journey toward reunification.

The mission of CPLC's Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is to promote the health, well-being, and stability of refugees, unaccompanied alien children, and other eligible individuals and families, through culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and strengths-based services. Our vision is for all new arrivals to be welcomed with equitable, high-quality services and resources so they can maximize their potential.

HOW WILL YOU MAKE AN IMPACT IN THIS ROLE? In response to the humanitarian crisis at America’s ports of entry, CPLC is providing short-term shelter care services for unaccompanied children who arrive without a parent or legal guardian.

In this role, you will:

Support a best-in-class residential environment that prioritizes the emotional, educational, physical, and therapeutic needs of every child. Help ensure children receive immediate access to pediatric care, dental care, nutrition, education, and enrichment activities. Contribute to a team that is deeply committed to trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and strengths-based practices. Play a crucial role in helping children reunify quickly and safely with their family sponsors.

Every day in this role is an opportunity to serve, to protect, and to create stability for children navigating one of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.

WHO YOU ARE? You are compassionate, patient, energetic, and deeply mission-driven. You thrive in environments that require empathy, professionalism, cultural sensitivity, and teamwork. You understand the importance of structure, safety, and support in a child’s healing journey — and you believe every child deserves dignity, respect, and a chance to flourish.
