Asylum Rights by U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants

March 23, 2020

As of 2020, more than 70 million people around the world had been forcibly displaced from their homes. The Policy and Advocacy Division brings expertise from direct experience working with forced and voluntary migrants. In addition, we synthesize insights from USCRI’s programs with unaccompanied children, legal services, refugee resettlement, and victims of human trafficking to identify and create solutions for individuals whose protection needs fall outside legal definitions of refugee or asylee.
