The year 2015 has seen the greatest displacement of people around the world since World War II with 65.3 million people having to flee their homes. [1] Because of this increased crisis, President Obama made a "Call to Action" for the private sector to make a commitment to help refugees and their oportunity for jobs as well as accessibility to their needs.[2]
Government support after arrival
[edit]As soon as people seeking asylum in the United States are accepted as refugees they are given public assistance like any other citizen in need such as cash welfare, food assistance, and health coverage[3]
In monetary amounts, the U.S. Government's international humanitarian program of the Migration and Refugee Assistance (MRA) requested in the fiscal year 2016 that 442.7 million dollars be allocated to Refugee Admission programs that relocate refugees in communities across the country. [4]
