Our goal is to acclimate refugees into American society and provide services to address all of their needs to becoming self-sufficient and productive members of society.
How the U.S. Refugee Resettlement Program Works
Often, individuals or families at risk of being persecuted must leave their own country and seek asylum in a neighboring country. Sometimes, the country to which they have fled does not have everything they need, such as specialized healthcare. Other times, the individual or family is at risk of being forced back to their home country, which remains unsafe. This is where a third country comes into the equation and offers permanent residence, known as resettlement, so refugees can begin rebuilding their lives.
