CWS Jersey City

Supporting Refugees and Asylees in New Jersey

Since early 2015, CWS Jersey City has fast become a center for the resettlement of refugees in diverse and vibrant communities across Northern New Jersey.

CWS Jersey City provides comprehensive case management and employment services aimed at empowering newly arrived refugees to build a foundation for long-term self-sufficiency and success in the United States. Services for refugees include basic needs support, case management, cultural orientation, health access assistance and intensive job preparation and placement services.
