Health Navigator
Healthcare Navigator volunteers help newly arrived refugees stay or get healthy by enrolling and introducing them to our healthcare system, and supporting them in following any medical needs outlined by the primary care provider, with the goal for the client to become independent and able to access and manage their own healthcare.

While the Refugee & Immigrant Services Program goes through staff transitions, we are temporarily pausing new volunteer intakes through the Refugee Resettlement Coalition website. Please check back on or after 12/15/2025 for updates.
Specific volunteer asks may continue to be published in the Refugee Resettlement Coalition monthly newsletter. If you are not yet subscribed, we invite you to fill out the form at the bottom of our homepage!
Volunteers are key to our work. Welcoming, advocating for, and walking alongside newcomers effectively involves the whole community, not just one or two organizations. We greatly appreciate your interest in supporting refugees and immigrants here in Lane County, and hope to connect with you once capacity allows.
If you are looking for other ways to provide support while volunteer intakes are on pause, we invite you to:
- Consider donating to the Refugee & Immigrant Services Program
- Support your local food networks (food pantries, little free pantries, etc.) to help those impacted by loss of SNAP eligibility
