Three of Indiana’s eight resettlement agencies are ending their resettlement programs.
Declines in arrivals and federal funding have forced the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops–which oversees 60 of U.S.’s 360 resettlement offices–to withdraw from the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program this fall. Catholic Charities of Fort Wayne, Catholic Charities South Bend, and Catholic Charities Indianapolis, are three offices that are impacted.
Donating to these offices can help position these agencies to resume resettlement should the federal landscape change.

Indiana deserves a Refugee Program it can rely on.
Refugees do too.
