Since joining Re:new in 2017, I have become keenly aware of the issues facing refugee women in DuPage County. The women inspire me in so many ways. I am particularly impressed with their ability to adapt and persevere, despite the obstacles they face.
According to the United Nations, there are more than 22 million refugees who are displaced throughout the world. Re:new is stepping in the gap to support refugee women in the Chicagoland area, providing them with the resources they need to grow and thrive.
We are so grateful for the many interns who serve Re:new with their time and talents. Interns contribute to our operations in many practical and valuable ways.
