Adjusting to Life & Work in the U.S. - Perspectives from Refugee Women

In the summer of 2019, Switchboard interviewed recently resettled refugee women in Atlanta, GA; Hyattsville, MD; and Lancaster, PA. The goal of this video is to elevate the voices of female clients, giving them the opportunity to reflect on their early experiences in the U.S. and a platform to share their perspective and advice with service providers and newly arrived clients. The video is accompanied by activities for service providers and for clients, as well as a transcript: https://bit.ly/2QKfoSp
