The 2022 Fiscal Year ended September 30 and the final refugee resettlement numbers are in. The US met 20% of its resettlement goal, welcoming 25,465 refugees. We need the USG to reinvest in resettlement as the cornerstone of humanitarian protection.

“#Safetyforall is a must!

As a millennial professional & recent mom of 3, there is a lot keeping me busy.

Sometimes I forget vital tasks like turning the alarms on. But my husband steps in, ensures our home is secured & makes me feel safe." — @LourenaGboeah
