Welcome to
Project Transition
A Bridge to Success for
Refugee Families!!!
Project Transition provides support and programs that help educate,
encourage, and counsel refugees in Palm Beach County. Our personalized
assistance helps refugees acquire critical English skills and training
that can assist in gaining employment and help in job advancement.
One
area we have found particular success in is the placement of trained
professionals to assist in high need areas such as schools, hospitals
and other health care facilities.
Through training we have helped many
medical professionals, forced to work in areas such as housekeeping and
maintenance, transition back into the health care field.
One of our
Haitian doctors interning at a hospital expressed the feeling of many
when she said, “I feel alive again to be around people who are doing
what I was doing in medicine in my country.”
