Welcome to SomaliCAN:
Somali Community Access Network- SomaliCAN is a
501 (c) 3 community nonprofit that works to
improve the health, safety, and productivity of New
Americans in Ohio through culturally competent
services, information and resources.
Somali refugees in Central Ohio and elsewhere in
the US bring with them a wealth of knowledge,
talent, hard work, enthusiasm and diversity. To use
these assets to best benefit themselves, families and
communities, these newcomers need to get support
in finding services they need and learning to
navigate throughout this whole complex new system
and completely different setting.
SomaliCAN works through a statewide network of
partners, non-profits, community-based
organizations, state and local governments, and
private sector enterprises to provide the Somali
refugees and immigrants with access and the
information pertaining to the available essential
services.
