What do I do to house a Syrian refugee family in my home?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I would start by contacting the International Rescue Committee which is one of the most responsible organizations supporting refugees in the world. On their page is a link to a NY Times article on what the US can do. Not sure if the article deals with housing individual families but the organization should be able to give you some leads. Another possibility is to contact local churches that you respect or belong to and see if they are conducting any resettlement programs.
