arrived sicily march family fled dara syria lived jordan near irbid seven years stayed syria long could before bombing destruction devastation became too bad day after fled house destroyed bomb very little idea what expect arrived italy first days felt very isolated questioned decision much like refugees lepore helps didnt speak language culture food everything completely different challenges

few lepore wrote paper called flourishing partnerships observations acculturation needs refugees published journal psychology brain studies understanding experience vital those assisting them become successful new americanslepore has attended support groups refugees bhutan china democratic republic congo iraq sudan myanmar formerly burma said no matter which group he observing all desired assimilate american culture uplifting see people other parts world still see america place free respected lepore said however coming united states isnt without its challenges refugees often face many misconceptions themselves lepore said has been mistaken notion refugees public assistance indefinitely taxpayers supporting families truth families only given three months assistance find gainful employment time while facing myriad challenges terms acculturation addition fighting untrue stigmas refugees also coping scars past people dont idea what some families gone through lepore said not only escaping religious political persecution home countries but also then often forced live refugee camps where endured huge deficits resources lived trauma uncertainty dayday basis addition coping whatever traumas ve endured refugees must learn customs dayday practices american culture often children grasp language culture sooner because school while can helpful lepore said often reverses roles parents children causing some frustration parents lepore able help refugees support groups discussing common cultural courtesies customs help them better assimilate one group got into trouble women

confusion but also hope socioeconomic statuses how americans can change status but other countries born into certain status caste system stay also hopes fears associated citizenship some worried couldnt achieve citizenship relocation assimilation efforts would rendered meaningless others feared wouldnt enough money saved retirement because only supported social security few years another major concern refugees degrees often dont translate united states example many individuals degrees engineering law came here take menial jobs like delivering pizza but did whatever could earn money lepore said lepore said he believe colleges universities could potentially help fill gaps people order match standards ours then could perform jobs trained which he believes better society general lepore recognizes standards issue complex college university undertake however think could done but would require institutions review requirements particular countries obtain degrees then match them our own standards addition colleges universities helping refugees lepore said few ways we citizens can help refugees assimilate locally one best ways help just friendly show interest understanding culture he saidmost local communities designated agency supports families refugees asylum seekers one such agency allegheny county jewish family childrens services which offered support groups lepore observed people can volunteer donate resources money agencies finally lepore wants people understand appreciative way refugees approach living united states readily apparent positive attitudes embody
