The Immigrant & Refugee Outreach Center (IROC) is a legitimate 501(c)(3) organization providing valuable social services in the Washington D.C. area. However, the submission itself contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' as traction) and lacks evidence of technological innovation. The project appears to be a standard non-profit operation rather than a technology product. While the real-world utility of the organization is high, the Proof of Usefulness score is constrained by the lack of custom technology, the localized scale (approx. 1,300 individuals served), and the low quality of the submission data.
