Featured Work: Family Reunification

Family reunification has emerged as a key route to safety for migrants at a time when traditional resettlement opportunities are shrinking. Family reunification programs have a large role to play in providing safe passage for hundreds of thousands of highly vulnerable refugees, including more than 150,000 unaccompanied refugee children around the world.

32% of IRAP clients this year were separated families seeking reunification
