Arizona
Arizona's diversity is tied to the land with reservations covering 28% of the state and 22 federally recognized Native American nations. Many Latin Americans have further made the culture rich because of the traditions and food they brought. Arizona welcomes the many who come from countries worldwide such as Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Burma. We see the beauty of the tapestry woven from diversity. The Community Programs team in Arizona is actively engaged with local nonprofit organizations, serving in the community, and developing opportunities for collecting and sharing refugee stories.
