Intercambio is innovating during these challenging times!  Here are some of the important activities we are doing to adapt to the changing needs.

  1. Reaching out with individual phone calls to our immigrant students to listen, care for, and ensure that they are aware of, and feel safe to access, critical resources available.
  2. Creating online opportunities that allow our students and teachers to remain meaningfully connected and continuing to learn.
  3. Developing new classes, evaluation tools, trainings and more to support our local participants and the 600+ organizations nationwide that count on Intercambio for curriculum and support.
  4. Being fiscally responsible and making choices and sacrifices to significantly cut operating and personnel expenses.
  5. Listening to, adapting and learning from our local community and our national partners.
