Below, you’ll find CCS’ current, most pressing needs and the ways that you can get involved.

Warm Clothing Needed at Basic Needs Salt Lake
CCS’ Basic Needs Salt Lake serves those in our community impacted by homelessness, as well as food and income insecurity.

Volunteer with Refugee Clients
CCS' Migration and Refugee Services Department works hard to make sure that all clients settling into life in Utah have the support they need. We couldn't do it without the help of our dedicated volunteers! Explore all ten ways you can volunteer with Migration and Refugee Services here.
Refugee Foster Parents Needed
Through CCS’ Refugee Foster Care program, unaccompanied refugee minors are placed in loving and licensed foster care homes. While in the program, a team of Family Consultants, Case Managers, and Transition to Adult Living Coaches work with foster families to help the youth reach their goals and prepare for long-term self-sufficiency.
If you are interested in opening your heart and home to a refugee youth, consider becoming a Refugee Foster Parent. For more information, visit this page or email us at

CCS' Sharehouse is currently in need of furniture, household items, and cleaning supplies for newly arrived refugee clients. Donations can be made through our Amazon Wishlist. Alternatively, donations can be dropped off at 440 S 400 W Suite D & E in Salt Lake City on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1:00-4:00 pm.
