Refugee Contractors


The federal government pays nine primary national contractors to resettle refugees and asylees. These voluntary agencies or VOLAGs are listed below with their initialisms:


CWS: Church World Service


ECDC: Ethiopian Community Development Council


HIAS: Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society


IRC: International Rescue Committee


LIRS: Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services


CC/USCCB: Catholic Charities/U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops


USCRI: U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants


EMM: Episcopal Migration Ministries


WRI: World Relief Inc.


There are 350 federal subcontractors in 190 cities, all affiliated with the nine main refugee VOLAGs, but cataloging them is beyond the scope of this paper. . .
