Staff
Majur Malou is the Executive Director of the Program and manages the day-to-day services. He works with recent arrivals to help them in their registration needs – medical, school enrollment, driving licenses, those in difficulty with official organizations and who do not understand their situation. He is a key figure in helping to explain the American Culture to the refugee community and in easing many of the misunderstandings that arise.
Nadia is the family outreach case-worker and makes home visits to ensure that newly-arrived families have their basic housing and food needs met. For longer-established families she seeks out problem areas such as: no food for the children during the fourth week of the month, the need to arrange for medical and other personal visits for women and children, and provides social and management counseling for family members. She is the “detector” for problems that have not surfaced.
The two staff members help volunteers to collect donated furniture, bedding, household goods, blankets and clothing from all over the San Diego County and to deliver the supplies to newly-rented apartments and to longer-established families that need new supplies.
