For immigrants

The City of Kerava’s immigrant services are responsible for the initial integration of refugees who are beneficiaries of international protection, including providing guidance and counselling. 

The City works closely with other authorities that organise immigrant services. The City provides services for immigrants in cooperation with the wellbeing services county of Vantaa and Kerava. Our partners in the reception of quota refugees are the Uusimaa ELY Centre and the wellbeing services county of Vantaa and Kerava.
