Refugee Resettlement and Migration in the U.S.,[object Object],Kristen Nelson,[object Object],MGD 120,[object Object]
Overview,[object Object],[object Object]
Eligibility for resettlement is determined every year by the United States government. The global refugee system is assessed, and those groups who have spent many years in refugee camps and have little or no chance of a durable solution are then nominated for third country resettlement.
Once a refugee population is nominated for resettlement, individual families and cases can apply, usually a 1 year process.
Process includes background checks, medical checks, skills and mental health assessment, visa processing and travel assistance,[object Object]
The conditions in camps are often difficult, with limited access to clean water and sanitation, little to no access to medical care, limited work opportunities and limited access to nutritious food.
Upon arrival in the United States, refugees have a case manager who helps them find an apartment, receive cash assistance, enroll in school, look for employment and attend cultural orientation.
Case Management services are provided for 6 months after arrival, and after that refugees are on their own

  • 16. Language, educational and employment barriers often lead to a gap in services, including education, medical care and other social services.

  • 18. Lack of employment. Many refugees have a difficult time finding employment once they reach the United States. They end up on welfare, and if they do not have children to qualify for welfare, they end up homeless.
