Salt Lake City is honored to be a second home for refugees from the world over. Today, with the end of our nation’s 20-year military presence there, we eagerly welcome the chance to open our community and hearts to refugees and evacuees from Afghanistan.

Emerald Project condemns the French Senate's vote to ban Muslim girls and their accompanying mothers from wearing hijab in public schools.

This is what the oppression of Muslim women and girls looks like.

This is what oppression really looks like for Muslim women.
