Challenge

More than 100,000 people were evacuated from Afghanistan when the US military pulled out of the country in August 2021. Nonprofit organizations jump-started a massive effort to resettle tens of thousands of Afghan families in the United States, with the help of local volunteers. Refugee resettlement organizations were inundated with questions from the public about the plan to resettle Afghan families, how many people would be arriving, and what they could do to help.
