Over the past decade, the organization grew into what it is today, offering an array of services in resettlement, family support, employment, legal services, education, health, youth programming, mentorship and community engagement. According to its website, Hello Neighbor serves over 750 people a month from 35 countries of origin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">\u201cI am extraordinarily proud of what we have built together over the past 10 years and of the thousands of people who have shaped Hello Neighbor,\u201d Davidson said. \u201cThis organization is so much bigger than any one person, and I feel deeply confident in the team, the work and the future ahead.
