The Refugee Response was established in 2010 to assist in bridging the gap between existing resettlement agency services and the longer support needs of the refugee population. Our organization’s goals and objectives revolve around being responsive to the needs of northeast Ohio’s refugee community in order to forge a deep and sustaining impact on resettled refugees as they make new roots and re-write the story of their families’ futures to one of freedom from persecution and finding security and self-sufficiency. The organization’s programs are critical to both the short- and long-term economic success and the social and emotional acculturation of these Northeast Ohio community members.
