Washington
A state that welcomed refugees from Vietnam in the 1970s, Washington continues to open its doors to those who are looking for a new home. In 2019, Washington ranked as one of the top states for initial resettlement. Today, newcomers from Afghanistan and Ukraine add to an ever-evolving and vibrant immigrant population. The Community Programs team in Washington is actively engaged with local nonprofit organizations, serving in the community, and developing opportunities for collecting and sharing refugee stories.
