USAHello is a free online center for information and education for refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants and welcoming communities. USAHello is a non-profit organization that uses technology to connect immigrant communities with the information and resources they need to thrive.
What we do: USAHello’s platform serves as a hub for trustworthy information and educational resources visited by over 2.9 million of people from diverse backgrounds this year. We work hard to be relevant to the communities we serve. Our information is written in plain English and translated into additional languages to ensure it is accessible to as many people as possible. Our website covers a wide range of topics, and our FindHello app (a partnership with UNHCR) connects people to local services. Our popular online classroom offers free citizenship and GED® preparation classes. For more information about all of USAHello’s programs, please visit our FAQ page.
Guided by the population we serve: Our work is guided by the communities we serve. We believe that newcomers themselves are their own best advocates, and more than half of our board members are resettled refugees or first- and second-generation immigrants. Our programs were developed by and are continually guided by community input, including USAHello’s Technical Advisory Council of refugees and immigrants, many of whom work directly with other newcomers. We encourage regular feedback and contributions from diverse voices throughout our site.
