World Refugee Day is officially observed on June 20th each year. This day honors the courage, strength and determination of women, men and children who are forced to flee their homeland under threat of persecution, conflict and violence, as well as the people who have dedicated their lives to helping them. This World Refugee Day, we encourage you to join the movement and get to know refugees and activists living in your community by hosting or attending a community awareness event. Find one near you, or start your own by visiting MeetUp.com.
