An Afghan Culture & History Primer: Helping the Hudson Valley to Welcome Refugees (virtual)
February 27, 2022 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
FreeOn Sunday, February 27, join The Reher Center for Immigrant Culture and History and Sina Baha and Khadija Ghanizada to learn about Afghan culture and history, and to hear first-hand some of the challenges Afghan newcomers face in the Hudson Valley. Over the past few months, several dozen Afghan refugees have settled in the Hudson Valley. This presentation is geared toward assisting Hudson Valley neighbors in welcoming our newest neighbors. The program will feature presentations as well as time for questions. We will also hear from the Afghan Support Circle of the Hudson Valley, a group currently working in support of a refugee agency to help resettle a family in Ulster County. Register here!
