About Us

Since 1981, International House has been a leading provider of direct services to Charlotte’s ever-growing international community, which numbers more than 104,000 immigrants and foreign-born citizens. We are a grassroots non-profit organization with a mission to promote international understanding and to serve immigrants in need. We offer foreign-language conversation hours, cultural events, an international book club, citizen diplomacy programs, an international women’s group, language classes, free citizenship workshops, legal services for low-income immigrants, and much more. Thank you for visiting our web site to learn more about our unique organization!

A volunteer tutor helps an immigrant learn to speak and write English through our free tutoring program.	Each year, International House holds workshops to help prepare immigrants to become U.S. citizens, a dream for most.	International House helps immigrants, like Kokouvi (pictured above), with their legal needs including citizenship and family reunification.
