Syrian Community Network

Overview

Syria is considered by the United Nations as the worst humanitarian crisis of our lifetime, with over 6 million refugees worldwide and over 3 million people internally displaced. In 2013, the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugee, and Migration announced that Syrian refugees will be resettled in the United States. Upon hearing that announcement, SCN Founder Suzanne Akhras put out a call to action to her community and started to bring awareness about what refugee resettlement entails in the United States.
