IRIS offers services to immigrants and displaced people in the community who do not have Refugee immigration status. All immigrants are facing grim realities; evictions, deportations, medical/health insecurity, lack of food, and lack of employment as the economic collapse due to COVID-19 hit undocumented residents hardest. Our program aims to help our clients become strong self-advocates with an awareness of how to access what they need.
Our basic services revolve around – health, education, and food access with limited assistance in legal services.
