JRS Summer Programme

The Jesuit Refugee Service, Ireland will begin its annual Summer Programme this week. The Summer Programme is for the children of asylum seekers living in direct provision centres in Dublin.

The Jesuit Refugee Service welcomed an international team of Interns last week that will assist JRS Ireland staff, Kate Putney and Marta Hernandez, in the implementation of the Summer Programme.

The team includes Radosław Borawski (SJ) and Jacek Domanski (SJ), two Jesuit Scholastics from Poland; Haley Rademacher, a college student majoring in African Studies from the United States; and Jonathan Malony, an Intern with the Limerick Integration Working Group from Co. Clare.

The Summer Programme is for the children of asylum seekers living in direct provision centres in Dublin. It will run for 4 weeks in July, and includes craft days, sports, day trips in Dublin and Wicklow and a special music video workshop for teenagers.
