Join us for coffee, pastries, and inspiring conversations as we hear from newcomer refugees, Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) holders, and their American neighbors about the transformative Great Neighbor Guide (GNG) program. This gathering and informational session will offer attendees an inside look at how to become a Great Neighbor Guide—a role that fosters deep, mutually beneficial relationships while helping new members of the Charlottesville and U.S. community navigate life in their new home.

Our program will feature a community conversation and panel discussion highlighting the heart of International Neighbors: the GNG program. Attendees will gain insight into how this initiative creates reciprocal relationships and meaningful cultural connections.
