The Alignment Nashville Refugee and Immigrant Support Services Committee (now known as the Integration of International Families Alignment Team) seeks to assist MNPS teachers and school staff in creating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere for families of refugee and immigrant students.  By fostering open and helpful communication with these families we provide opportunities for students and their families to be more successful in school and in life.

On this site you will find information, tools and resources that will help you connect refugee and immigrant families with the services available to them.  Click on a category to find community organizations, business, non-profits, Metro departments or agencies, health providers, and more serving refugee and immigrant families in Metropolitan Nashville.
