Organizations
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees
U.S. Committee for Refugees (USCR)
Refugees are people who have lost everything: their homes, their belongings, their freedom, and their loved ones. Often, all that they have left are their inherent rights as human beings. Since 1958, the U.S. Committee for Refugees has identified those at greatest risk and given them a voice. Our work helps refugees get the protection and assistance they need to survive.
