KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia -
Burmese farmer Tial Biak Lian and his family board an airplane for the first time in their lives. The family lived as refugees in Kuala Lumpur for almost three years. They registered their interest to resettle in June 2009 and two years later finally got the word that they were moving to Indianapolis, Indiana.
The IRC helps refugees like Tial and his family prepare for their new lives in the United States. See more photos of refugees' journeys to America.
