Helping new immigrants!

Advocacy Meeting with new Mainers!

Strong objectives to welcome and help our new French friends and family.

To help French-speaking asylum-seekers with the asylum-seeking process and immigration issues.

To have interpreters available to show people the "who, what, where and how's of living in Maine.

Among other things, we would act like a welcoming committee providing much needed support and information to newcomers, so that they may move forward and thrive.

This organization primarily focuses on helping asylum-seekers in Lewiston and Auburn; with an eventual outreach in other parts of the state.

Tree Street Youth

MFHLP students at Sherwood Heights went on a field trip to Museum LA.
