Mukasa Agnes Flavia, a resilient refugee who arrived in the U.S. in 2019, faced challenges but found strength through the IRC. Supported by our programs, she purchased her first car and transformed her life. Now employed and active in addressing societal issues, Flavia's journey reflects resilience, gratitude, and advocacy. Join the IRC in supporting refugees like Flavia on their road to resettlement.

Late last August at the Annual Kansas Community Leadership Enterprise training, a group of residents from Finney County sat down to brainstorm ways that they could come together to support the needs of residents in Finney County.

After a three-year hiatus, the resettlement store reopened for IRC clients to select their most needed items.

One of the IRC’s goals in resettling refugees is to ensure that youth and adults have high levels of livelihood, literacy, numeracy and social-emotional skills. To that end, volunteers in NJ are currently facilitating English language instruction for refugees resettled in the Elizabeth area.

Take action now to show your support for refugee resettlement in Kansas and ensure refugees continue to feel welcome in our state.
