Umutoni

“In French they say, ‘I am ‘fière’ (proud) of my life now. I’m no longer seeking assistance, I’m confident in my business and now I have my own money… My life has really changed and I’m very grateful to RefugePoint and all the staff who helped me along the way.”

Mangok Family Reunification

“I have lived in the United States for 24 years, but I have never had an immediate family live with me. I have always wished for this — to have my family members in one place. It feels really good to wake up every morning knowing that we’re under the same roof.”

“We have faced a lot of problems in this life. If I finish school and get good grades, I can start working on bettering my financial state. School and completing my studies mean everything for me.”

Henry, Daniela, & Prisca

“This opportunity is a big one for us. There are so many people searching for this opportunity. Life was not easy. Working as a hairdresser to provide for my siblings was tough. I would often wonder: What is their future? What is our future? But this resettlement means a lot to us.”

Mark Labor Mobility

“I will become a light to my family, community, and everyone. If I tell you what the Economic Mobility Pathway means, it means life to us.”

Resettlement

“Resettlement means so much to me. It will change my life, and my focus is on providing my children a better life and education.”

Ndakize

“The training I received at RefugePoint was invaluable. It taught me many essential skills, including how to be independent, how to save money, how to work hard, and how to stay persistent. Being self-reliant is something I truly value.”
