In the news:

TODAY contributer Brooke Hauser's story about United States citizenship — and immigrants voting for the first time — features Kadidja Ata, a young refugee resettled by the International Rescue Committee in New York, and Zaw Htike, a caseworker with the IRC in Salt Lake City.

Hauser is the author of “The New Kids: Big Dreams and Brave Journeys at a High School for Immigrant Teens."  Read our Q&A with her about refugee teens in America.
