About usThe Somali Bantu Citizen Group of Oregon is a 501(C)3 status. SBCG was first established in 2005 with the express goal of facilitating the resettlement and integration of the Somali Bantu community refugee in Oregon, especially in Washington/ Multnomah County as a part of a resettlement program in the United States. The purpose of this nonprofit organization is to help educational, cultural and life-skill training programs in an effort to promote self-sufficiency within and among the Somali Bantu individuals, families and all other refugees who want to participate in our program. The Community has focused on education as a means of "Bridging the Gap" for refugees and as such provides a full range of workshops and classes to meet their needs.
