About This Campaign
Najwa Foundation’s Refugee Resettlement Support program is designed to complement existing resettlement efforts by focusing on education, language access, and long-term self-sufficiency.
Language and civic education are often the first steps toward independence, employment, and community integration. By strengthening these foundations, families are better positioned to pursue opportunities and advocate for themselves.
