What does Golden Beacon USA do?
Golden Beacon USA is a one-stop shop for the information that immigrants and refugees in the US need to acclimate to their new country. We offer educational videos on American culture and resources, resource referrals, social forums, and overview presentations to organizations serving these communities.
Is it a nonprofit organization?
We are a for-profit organization.
I don't speak English. Can I use your services?
Of course! We speak Spanish, but not fluently. For other languages or for those struggling with the English language, we ask that the client provide an interpreter when possible. However, if this is not possible, we can provide an interpreter with enough advanced notice, per the client’s request.
To use your services, do I have to disclose my immigration status?
NO. We help everyone and everyone, including undocumented clients. The only instance where we would need this information is during a resource referral to verify your eligibility to go to school, work, or use state or local programs. Your information is kept private and confidential. See our privacy policy for more information.
