Empowering others by translating culture.
Kalima Peace Village provides safe transitional housing and comprehensive support services to help displaced individuals build independent and successful lives in their new community.
After the building's initial use as a church and then as a health facility, Kalima Peace Village is able to offer transitional housing and programs for those facing financial, cultural, and educational barriers. We have over studio apartments with communal living spaces and bathrooms. Here, residents can find community in a space sympathetic to their needs. We offer several educational programs tailored for those seeking to start a new life in the U.S.
