Over the past few years, JCFS Winnipeg has engaged in an innovative and unprecedented role; that of serving as a pillar to provide formality and organizational structure for a partnership of inter-faith and multifaceted community groups, non-profits, churches, synagogues, corporations, as well as government agencies to work together to save, integrate, and improve the quality of the lives of Yazidi refugees.
