Refugee Voices®
Read Testimonials from Refugees
Refugee Voices®, a program of U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, was established in 1987 with the idea that the best advocates for refugees are refugees themselves. By allowing others to hear and read the first-hand testimonies of refugees, not only are others better informed about the conditions refugees endure, but refugees become empowered to contribute their own voice to those of others working to help all refugees rebuild peaceful, stable lives.
