Don’t miss the chance to help refugees right here in Austin!

The Refugee Student Mentor Program (RSMP) brings members of the UT community who speak various languages into Austin public schools, where they mentor refugee and asylee students. The program has been running continuously since 2015, beginning in the Center for Middle Eastern Studies. Our other partners on campus include the Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies; The South Asia Institute; and the Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies.

Please contact Erin Kelleher at ekell@utexas.edu as soon as possible if you are interested in volunteering. We will be holding an orientation on Zoom this coming week, time and date TBD.
