You can do what the federal government won’t: fund resettlement. Help a local office to keep their doors open and their lights on.
Six of North Carolina’s fifteen resettlement offices are ending their resettlement programs this fall.
Declines in arrivals and federal funding have forced The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and Episcopal Migration Ministries to withdraw from the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program this fall. Together, these two resettlement agencies oversee 78 of the U.S.’s 360 resettlement offices.
Catholic Charities Ashville, Catholic Charities Charlotte, and Interfaith Refugee Ministries are three of those offices.
Donating to these offices can help position these agencies to resume resettlement should the federal landscape change.
To change the federal landscape, contact your representatives.
North Carolina deserve a resettlement program it can rely on.
Refugees do too.
