This grant initiative, offered by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, provides microenterprise business opportunities for refugee women, specifically in childcare mentoring. It aims to facilitate their integration into U.S. culture and compliance with State childcare regulations. Key objectives include enhancing English language skills, advancing educational attainment such as GEDs, and improving economic prospects by leveraging the demand for childcare providers. Through the program, mentors will assist women in securing agreements with State or county childcare offices, enabling them to qualify for reimbursement as service providers. This supports the development of sustainable, income-generating childcare businesses.
