Walking humbly alongside forced migrants lies at the heart of the JRS mission and it is based on the belief that encounter, mutual relationship and community are fundamental to human flourishing; the solid foundation upon which to support and assist, in practical ways, those who seek refuge in our country.

Understanding the challenges faced by refugees, asylum seekers and forced migrants calls us to respond with meaningful solutions. We offer practical assistance to those we accompany, responding to the individual’s needs.

Once refugees have made the difficult decision to leave home in search of safety and survived various challenges on their way to Europe, the process of seeking asylum is too often challenging, confusing and traumatic. Our mission is to help them through this process.
