Reducing refugees reliance on government aid and resources
As widely reported in the news, thousands of refugees are arriving in the U.S.
With ongoing global disasters and conflicts, many refugees have no choice but to leave their homeland in search of safety elsewhere. Is it likely that refugees will continue seeking refuge in the U.S.? … Very much so.
As a community, we can alleviate the strain on government resources by supporting vulnerable refugee families. By doing this, we can help ensure they become self-sufficient members of our communities, contributing to the workforce and the economy.
It is well established that when refugees achieve self-sufficiency, they contribute positively to the U.S. economy and enhance its growth.
It’s important to recognize the benefits of helping vulnerable refugee families achieve self-sufficiency while also boosting our economy. There's no cause for concern—the New Housing Initiative Project is ready to offer support.
