March 15 – Great Decisions: Refugees and Global Migration

The Great Decisions community discussion series continues with our forth lecture. Nadia Kasvin, Director and Co-Founder of US Together, a Refugee Resettlement Agency, presents “Refugees and Global Migration” at noon on Fri., March 15 at the Fellowship Hall of William Street United Methodist Church, 28 W. William St., Delaware. Kasvin started her career in refugee resettlement 24 years ago when she came to the United States as a refugee from Ukraine. She founded US Together in 2003 and the program currently has operations in Columbus, Cleveland and Toledo, Ohio, resettling up to 1,300 refugees a year. In 2015, Kasvin was honored as a White House Champion of Change for World Refugees.

Attendees are welcome to bring a brown-bag lunch. Complimentary coffee and tea will be provided. Following the discussion, participants will have the option of completing a survey, prepared by the Foreign Policy Association, to add their opinions to thousands of others across the nation. Survey results will be sent to executive and legislative policymakers in Washington, D.C.

The Great Decisions Discussion Program, a free community discussion series, is designed to encourage debate and discussion of the role of the United States in world affairs. The program provides materials that help people reach informed opinions on issues and encourages them to participate in the foreign-policy process.
