A copy of this resettlement guidebook,
which has been translated into fourteen
languages in addition to English, is given
to all refugees overseas once they have
been approved for resettlement to the
U.S. The Guidebook is intended to give
refugees information about fundamental
aspects of life in the United States.

Basic concepts that even students who
