Abstract

The global refugee crisis has reached unprecedented levels, with millions of forcibly displaced individuals seeking refuge across the world. The United States, while maintaining the largest resettlement program, is a critical player in offering a new home to those in need. As the U.S. experiences shifts in immigration policy under the Biden administration, the country is expected to welcome an increasing number of refugees in the coming years. This emphasizes the importance of understanding the challenges and obstacles faced by refugee groups during the integration process. This abstract highlights the urgency of addressing these issues as we strive to provide a safe haven for those seeking refuge
