Who We Are

As Montana’s only refugee resettlement agency, IRC Missoula meets basic and immediate needs for refugees, asylees, victims of human trafficking, survivors of torture and other immigrants so they can thrive in America. These individuals have survived against incredible odds. Through our work, we build support systems, encourage self-sufficiency, and facilitate refugees’ integration into the Missoula community. Case management, housing assistance, and employment services are provided for all clients. IRC Missoula also trains and supervises volunteer mentors who provide support and guidance to recently arrived refugee families. IRC Missoula helps the world’s most vulnerable to rebuild their lives.

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people whose lives are devastated by crisis to survive, recover and gain control of their future. At work in over 44 countries and nearly 26 U.S. cities to restore safety, dignity and hope, the IRC leads the way from harm to home.
