Default Job opportunities with refugees around Burlington?

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Illinois (with a master's in counseling) and I have extensive experience working with refugees in the country and abroad, and absolutely LOVE it. Do you know of any opportunities to work with refugees in the Burlington area?

This possibility just occurred to me:
Tibetan Association of Vermont - Omm

I think there are some Sudanese refugees in Vermont as well, though I don't know of an organization. Maybe this one:
AALV | Association of Africans Living in Vermont, Inc.

My wife also has a LPC from IL. She has maintained it since she moved here 4 years ago. She also mentioned VRRP. Like you, she waxes poetically about the old Target store. We moved here from Geneva, Il with previous stops in Wheaton and Chicago.

Good luck.

If you are not multiligual you might have a challenge finding work.

I know they were looking for people fluent in several languages besides English. French might not be enough. I wish I had continued learning Slavic languages!
