VOLAG, sometimes spelled Volag or VolAg, is an abbreviation for "Voluntary Agency". This term refers to any of the nine U.S. private agencies and one state agency that have cooperative agreements with the State Department to provide reception and placement services for refugees arriving in the United States.〔 〕 These agencies use funding from the State Department's Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) along with self-generated resources to provide refugees with a range of services including sponsorship, initial housing, food and clothing, orientation and counseling. VOLAGs may also contract with the Office of Refugee Resettlement (part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services) to provide job placement, English language training and other social services. ==List of VOLAGs== *Church World Service *Episcopal Migration Ministries *Ethiopian Community Development Council *Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society *International Rescue Committee *Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service *U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants *United States Conference of Catholic Bishops *World Relief 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「VOLAG」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
