DRC, we're rooting for you.

Today is World Refugee Day around the world. Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego has proclaimed today as World Refugee Day right here in Phoenix! 💛

"Refugees are honored each year internationally for their courage, resilience, and enduring hope as they overcome some of the most harrowing circumstances and persevere in the face of adversity. Phoenix remains steadfast in its commitment to being a welcoming community for refugee arrivals who now call this city their home.

Phoenix celebrates the strength and spirit refugees bring, welcoming individuals and families from around the world as they join and enrich our community. Their traditions, cultures, and lived experiences strengthen our shared identity, and their contributions continue to enhance the vibrancy of our city. ...

Phoenix is proud to have supported thousands of refugees from countries across the globe. We commend both the remarkable courage of refugees and the commitment of public agencies, private organizations, employers, volunteers, and community partners in Phoenix who work tirelessly to overcome cultural, linguistic, and economic barriers—restoring hope, dignity, and opportunity."
