The Village Exchange Center in Aurora supports the needs of the local refugee and immigrant community.

For three years, the Village Exchange Center has offered a safe and supportive space for refugees and immigrants from countries all over the world. This Aurora-based non-profit strives to provide an inclusive, multi-faith community center that lets new residents bond with others and helps them grow into their new home here in America. The Village Exchange Center also provides informational services, English classes, food pantry support, after-school programs, and much more.
