What’s Happening

The number of refugee arrivals into the United States each year is announced every October by a Presidential Determination. In recent years refugee arrival numbers have fluctuated widely. This year CRRA expects to resettle up to 300 incoming people. CRRA also continues to provide an array of services for all refugees and asylees for up to five years from their date of arrival – meaning the agency can be assisting well over 500 people each year.
