Join us for an insightful presentation exploring the unique challenges faced by refugees with disabilities, a population often neglected in both policy and practice. Drawing on personal experiences and research, this talk highlights how the intersectionality of refugee status and disability exacerbates barriers to basic services like healthcare, education, and employment. Mustafa Rfat, a PhD student and refugee with disabilities, will share his journey from Iraq to the U.S., detailing the structural oppression he encountered and the ways in which current refugee resettlement systems fall short in addressing the needs of refugees with disabilities. The discussion will also focus on the urgent need for more inclusive policies and programs that promote equity and self-sufficiency for this marginalized group. This is an important conversation about resilience and advocacy in bridging the gaps for disabled refugees.

First Wednesdays 10am & Third Thursdays 2pm This recurring opportunity for discussion provides space to share what we're thinking about and what is impacting our campus community. Plan to join together in conversation when these pick back up again across the Spring Semester!
