Welcome in Action: How U.S. congregations can support refugees
Event Description
The Biden administration has raised this year’s refugee admissions numbers and laid the groundwork for increased capacity to welcome refugees in the years ahead. Historically, congregations around the U.S. have played an essential role in supporting refugee families as they integrate into their new communities, and the opportunity to resume that important work is a now tangible reality.
Join us to explore - or re-engage with - what congregational sponsorship of newly arriving refugees looks like. We will hear from HIAS resettlement staff and from two synagogues that have welcomed refugees to their communities in recent years.
This program is brought to you by HIAS in partnership with CCAR, Reconstructing Judaism, the RRA, the URJ, the RA, and the USCJ.
