Resettling an Afghan Family
Our Afghan family is having some challenges. Their request for extension of their food support and medical benefits has been denied. Their visas expired in early summer and with that, their official status as ‘humanitarian parolees’. Their asylum lawyer told them they did not need to renew their visas, as they were in the process for asylum. But this proved to be bad advice. Since November 1, they are receiving only a very small amount of food stamps, and Medicaid will only cover a life-threatening emergency. We are working to reinstate their visas and push along the asylum process (either of which would renew their benefits), but this will take time. In the meantime, we welcome your donations toward their rent, utilities, and basic needs. Thank you very much.
