Support for immigrant and refugee children in Cincinnati, Ohio

Youth Support Program

Our staff and volunteers joyfully provide support to refugees and immigrants of all ages. We are happy to give a helping hand while young client navigate a new home and unfamiliar school system. 

We help youth organize their current academics to post-high school lives, and everything in between. 

Empowering Youth Through Education and Supportive Networks

To provide the best support, our volunteers assess the needs of clients through home visits and then offer referrals to community partners who give student and parent education services! Volunteers also give their own support through after-school enrichment and tutoring.  

Enrichment

All year-round, we offer a study buddy program that fills academic gaps along with any needed guidance and support to help acclimate to their new school and community. Volunteers provide a weekly check-in with students in grades K-8.

In the summer, we host our own free summer camp in Wyoming, Cincinnati!

College Preparation

We provide need-based college preparation for those who want to pursue a higher education! We will gladly accompany clients to university visits, aid in college and scholarship applications, and create academic goals. For more information about this, contact us at info@heartfelttidbits.org
