With the help of 70 providers in Pittsburgh, our team was able to reach 469 Afghans (47 percent of the local, newly arriving population) and get them the support they needed. The services delivered were valuable and appreciated, as 73 percent of guests said they were very or extremely satisfied with their experience. While we cannot share every amazing story from our work, we can shine the spotlight on a handful of compassionate professionals who made a significant difference for so many families. We look forward to continuing our work at the DoubleTree, Seattle Airport, August 16 through 19.
As DHS’s commitment to Operation Allies Welcome parolees is enduring, USCIS hosts Afghan Support Centers to assist them in connecting to services integral to their long-term stability and integration in the United States. While USCIS provides the support center forum, USCIS does not endorse any service providers present and does not participate in, nor is responsible for, the services provided by any service providers.
