Evacuations have increased in scope this week, yet thousands of Afghans are still trapped in Kabul and other cities. The U.S. must continue evacuating those in need for as long as possible and ensure they find sustainable refuge in a safe country.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, RefugePoint is scaling up our workforce to address this urgent crisis. We are deploying staff to various strategic locations to complement our existing efforts in 23 countries worldwide. Our goal is to help Afghan refugees, including unaccompanied children, reunite with their families and resettle to countries where they can rebuild their lives in safety.<\/p>\n<p>We are working with governments, including our own, to help them meet their resettlement commitments. Refugees from Afghanistan are being evacuated to countries all over the world, where they will need support for onward resettlement processing to the US and other countries. Many of them will need counseling, and the staff working with them will need training on trauma-informed interviewing and other techniques, a role we are uniquely qualified for, having developed robust mental health programming in recent years. Our support for Afghans continues to expand as the situation progresses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/donate.refugepoint.org\/give\/353881\/#!\/donation\/checkout\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Support At-Risk Afghans and Other Refugees Today<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As thousands of Afghans flee the Taliban, they need all the support possible to reach safety.

One of those staff members recently began working on a case of two unaccompanied children who fled Afghanistan with their mother after the Taliban killed their father.* While attempting to cross the border to escape Afghanistan, they became separated in a great crowd of people fleeing.\u00a0 Amid the chaos, the children were ushered across the border by other refugees who assured them that they would rejoin their mother on the other side. Tragically, their mother did not make it across and the children have not seen or heard from her in over a year.<\/p>\n<p>The young children were forced to navigate a new, foreign country on their own. They were eventually registered as refugees and identified for resettlement, which is where our Expert first came into contact with the kids. RefugePoint has a number of Child Protection Experts based in the country to which the siblings fled. Our staff member has been working to reunite the children with family in a safe country.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, the children had a relative living in a safe country with whom they could live with. Our Child Protection Expert has started the formal reunification process for them and is working to move the case along as quickly as possible. This relative had also searched in vain for their mother. Our staff member has similarly had no luck in tracking her down, despite consistent effort through numerous methods.<\/p>\n<p>The plight of unaccompanied refugee minors is an extremely grave concern, which is why we prioritize these individuals in all of our casework. Young girls in particular are at risk of forced marriage, child pregnancy, abduction, and other protection concerns. The RefugePoint staff member working on this case has many years of child protection experience, having worked across multiple continents to help unaccompanied children similar to these two. Our team is hopeful that these children will soon find a loving home in a safe country with their relative and may one day reunite with their mother.<\/p>\n<p>Cases like these are becoming increasingly common as more Afghans flee the country. Our staff are located in a number of nearby countries working to help Afghan refugees access resettlement and other solutions. Given the dire situation in Afghanistan, RefugePoint expects to expand these efforts in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n<p>*For the safety of our staff and clients, we have redacted details that could put them at risk.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"single-post__content\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3096 size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-1024x692.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-1024x692.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-300x203.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-768x519.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-1536x1038.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-540x365.jpeg 540w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res-400x270.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/kabul-must-credit-low-res.jpeg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>August 21, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>One Refugee\u2019s Flight from Afghanistan<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Photo :\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/camafghanistancam\/4904724343\/in\/photostream\/\">M. Shoaib Sharify<\/a><\/p>\n<p>RefugePoint has many staff working around the world, in situations that are sometimes dangerous and often confidential due to security concerns*, to help Afghan and other refugees resettle to the U.S. and other countries where they can rebuild their lives safely.<\/p>\n<p>This is the story of one RefugePoint staff member\u2019s experience supporting an Afghan refugee.<\/p>\n<p>He is a father who worked with the U.S. Government in Afghanistan. He is married and has two young children. When the Taliban learned that this father worked for the U.S. military, they came after him. He managed to escape the country but wasn\u2019t able to bring his wife and young kids with him.<\/p>\n<p>As is the case for so many who flee their home, this father wound up in a dangerous place where he faced ongoing threats. RefugePoint\u2019s Resettlement Expert met with him on multiple occasions, provided him with counseling and support, and helped him resettle to a country where he can rebuild his life safely.<\/p>\n<p>Upon arrival in his new home, he filed family reunification documents for his wife and children. Their documents were finally processed and the application was accepted. The family was on the brink of relocating to join him when the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan and the Taliban took control. Now his wife and children are stuck. It\u2019s unclear at this point if or when they might be able to escape and reunite with the father.<\/p>\n<p>Many Afghan families are separated just like this one. In addition to helping individuals in life-threatening situations like this father, RefugePoint has also built a family reunification program to reunite unaccompanied children with parents and get families back together. We\u2019ve done this in collaboration with the International Refugee Assistance Project and the UN Refugee Agency. We have staff in a number of locations around the world working to help Afghan refugees resettle to countries where they can rebuild their lives, and we\u2019ve focused particularly on unaccompanied children. In response to this emergency, we are currently expanding our efforts to help Afghan refugees relocate to safety.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/donate.refugepoint.org\/give\/353881\/#!\/donation\/checkout\">Please consider supporting this urgent work today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>*For the safety of our staff and clients, we have redacted details that could put them at risk.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3090\" src=\"https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-2048x1152.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-540x304.jpeg 540w, https:\/\/www.refugepoint.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Afghanistan-statement-twitter-400x225.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>August 17, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>The U.S. Government Must Act Now to Protect At-Risk Afghans<\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As the Taliban assert control in Afghanistan, RefugePoint urges the U.S. government to take all action necessary to save the lives of the many thousands of Afghans who worked with U.S. forces,\u00a0 U.S. affiliated non-governmental organizations, and media outlets, and to protect others at particular risk such as human rights defenders, women and girls, LGBTQIA+ people, and others who have been targeted.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Some of these Afghans can potentially relocate to the U.S. through the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa program, Humanitarian Parole, and a new U.S. resettlement\u00a0<a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/rcusa.org\/resources\/rcusa-welcomes-news-of-priority-2-distinction-for-afghan-allies\/\">category for certain refugees from Afghanistan<\/a>.
