Dear Colleagues,
The Resettlement Branch Stakeholder calls began during Operation Allies Welcome as a way for federal agencies to keep resettlement stakeholders informed and for stakeholders to share questions and perspectives. In addition to continued Afghan content, the call has evolved to include regular content on Ukrainian, Cuban, and Haitian issues, as well as occasional other topics of general interest to resettlement partners.
The main federal agencies involved are HHS/ORR, State/PRM, and DHS/USCIS, with other federal agencies joining as needed. The main non-federal invitees are State Refugee Coordinators, State Refugee Health Coordinators, and national Resettlement Agencies.
This meeting occurred weekly for about a year before moving to biweekly over the last year.
We want to ensure this call stays relevant as we continue to support the influx populations from the last couple years and transition as much as possible to a new steady state of resettlement.
This is a very short survey and will take less than 5 minutes.
Thank you!
