The Businesses for Refugees pledge was launched in June 2021 as a unique opportunity for businesses of all sizes across the U.S. to unite and show support for refugees. As American communities welcome 65,000 Afghan refugees, this is a critical moment for companies to show that they value our refugee neighbors. This discussion heard from cross-sector leaders as they discussed the importance of refugee integration and support.
