At the IRC, we value diversity and the richness of the various world cultures we serve as well as those we represent among our staff. Tin Tin Oo, operations manager said, “I am very proud to be a part of such a uniquely diverse team. Today, we were able to come together to celebrate the beauty in our differences.”
