Since the 1990s, over 100,000 refugees were forced to leave their homes in Bhutan and settle in refugee camps along Nepal’s border.
They survived 17 years in these camps at the mercy of the UNHCR. Now, countries around the world, including the U.S. have opened the borders to receive these families.
Unfortunately without any social guidance, little to no education, language barriers and no financial stability these families remain refugees among our communities here in America.
