Canada's private refugee sponsorship program inspires U.S. efforts
Update: 2023-02-01
Description
The U.S. is building a program to privately sponsor refugees, modelled on the one Canada created in the 1970s. We discuss the new program — and what needs to be done to strengthen our own sponsorships — with Mark Hetfield, president and CEO of the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society in Silver Spring, Md.; Brian Dyck, the national migration and resettlement program co-ordinator for Mennonite Central Committee Canada; and Ratna Omidvar, an independent senator for Ontario.
