Let's Be Social

The students in our afterschool program are excited to welcome new arrivals into their classrooms and communities! This week, students worked with their teachers to create welcoming messages for new Americans that will be joining their classes in the coming months.

#refugees #newamericans #welcome

In light of the inhumane treatment of those seeking refuge at the US-Mexico border, we call on the Biden Administration to ensure the safety of all asylum-seekers in the US, repeal Title 42, and restore the integrity of our asylum program.

#enddeportations #asylum

We applaud the Biden Administration for announcing the presidential determination for FY22, beginning October 1st, will be set to a historic high of 125,000.

A huge thank you goes out to Lauren Harms for rallying her community to donate 4,800 pairs of underwear and 3,100 pairs of socks. Lauren shared, "It felt so good to have a way to help and serve our newest neighbors with a basic necessity like new underwear and socks. I'm humbled by the outpouring of support I got with just one social media post. People are so eager for ways to help." You are making such a big impact for refugee families! Thank you, Lauren.

ADVOCACY ALERT: As communities like ours welcome refugees, SIVs, and humanitarian parolees from Afghanistan, we urgently ask Congress to ensure evacuees are able to find safety and stability in their new homes.

On this Rosh Hashana, New American Pathways wishes those of you who observe L’ shana tovah. May you have a good and sweet new year.

Charity was born in Burma, where education was limited. After coming to the US she started receiving better education compared to both Burma and Malaysia. One of her proudest accomplishments includes getting into C5, a leadership program where everything they do is to improve leadership skills and improve their community. Charity’s favorite memories from afterschool were the field trips in Atlanta which included visiting the aquarium, zoo, and several museums.

Paw Khee moved to the US about ten years ago and is starting high school this year! Education is very important to Paw Khee because she is able to learn new things and more knowledge also helps her develop better decisions in life. She is looking forward to continuing to become an even better student this academic year and making more friendships now that she will be in high school with new people. Paw Khee’s favorite memories from afterschool are when the teachers assist students with assignments and learn more about each of the students individually.

Happy Krishna Janmashtami to all who celebrate today!

Thank you so much to Ethan from Ahavath Achim Synagogue for collecting school supplies, assembling backpacks, and writing notes to students as they begin a new school year! Congratulations on your upcoming bar mitzvah from the New AP family!

Susawney came to the United States in 2010 from Thailand. To her, having the opportunity to go to school is “great since she is able to meet many of her peers from different countries.” Susawney is looking forward to meeting new teachers and classmates in high school this school year. Her favorite memory from afterschool is being in the program for the first time, and quickly going from not knowing anyone to having many friends.

New American Pathways is devastated by the attacks at the Kabul airport today. Our hearts go out to the military personnel and Afghan allies who were impacted by this horrific attack, and to the families of those who lost their lives. We will continue to keep you informed on ways you can support Afghan allies here in Georgia.

Rozali is from Burma, born in Hakha where they did not have access to electricity or clean water. After coming to the United States and resettling in Georgia in 2013, Rozali was able to start going to school and excelling as a student. Her favorite things to do outside of school are seeing nature, spending time outside, going to the park, listening to music, going shopping, and hanging out with friends. One of Rozali’s proudest accomplishments included getting all A’s on her report card this year.

Thank you so much to all of those who are supporting us as we welcome Afghan SIVs and refugee families to Atlanta. We are blown away by all of the generous donations we are receiving! New AP is so grateful to have the community join us in helping refugees and Georgia thrive.

This month’s Thought Leader article is by Helena. Helena came to the US with her family as a refugee in 2013. She is a New American Pathways Summer Intern, DeKalb County high school student, and Bright Futures afterschool program alumna. As students across the country prepare for a new school year, Helena reflects on the importance of education and what having the opportunity to go to school in the United States means to her.

Helena shares, "My parents have been the ones motivating and inspiring me to finish my education since they couldn’t have the privilege that I have now. Through their actions and encouragement, I have learned the importance of education and the value of perseverance."

This weekend, our Resettlement team connected with Clarkston residents at the Clarkston Health Fair. NewAP staff shared information on COVID-19 vaccines and provided school supplies, snacks, water, and SNAP/Medicaid application assistance, as well as voter registration. It was wonderful spending our Saturday with the community!

Thank you so much to the Enterprise Holdings Foundation for their generous donation to New AP as an inaugural recipient of the Enterprise Holdings ROAD Forward Initiative! This contribution will allow New American Pathways to continue advancing social and racial equity in Atlanta communities.

We are grateful for the outpouring of support and to those asking to get involved as we prepare to welcome Afghan SIVs and refugee families to Georgia.

Our hearts are with Haiti after Saturday’s devastating earthquake. New American Pathways has staff and clients from Haiti or who have previously worked in Haitian communities and we stand with them in solidarity. To get involved in providing relief support, please connect with our partners @cws_global

New AP, as part of the Clarkston Public Health Coalition, is co-sponsoring a Clarkston Health Fair next Saturday, 8/21/2021, from 10am – 2pm in the Thriftown parking lot. We will have health screenings, hygiene packs, school supplies, COVID-19 vaccinations, benefits applications, voter registration, and more. Any Clarkston residents who receive COVID-19 vaccine will receive a $50 gift card!

New American Pathways is monitoring the changing situation in Afghanistan and is greatly concerned for the wellbeing and safety of the Afghan people, particularly the over 18,000 Special Immigrant Visa applicants and their families who assisted the US Military as interpreters and other roles. The SIV application process, which is supposed to take 9 months, has been taking 2-3 years, leaving these individuals in a vulnerable and unsafe position. Now, with the collapse of the Afghan government, the situation for SIV applicants is even more dire.

We call on the Biden Administration to save these families’ lives by swiftly evacuating them to safe locations to continue their application process. To leave these individuals in such a vulnerable situation in Afghanistan is devastating. We ask advocates to join us in reaching out to Georgia’s Congresspeople and the Biden administration to demand they prioritize the evacuations of these individuals and their families, as well as other vulnerable Afghans.

New American Pathways has a long history of working with Special immigrant Visa holders and their families in Georgia through initial resettlement and beyond. We are ready to welcome these families and are proud to be part of bringing people to safety here in Atlanta. We appreciate the support we are getting from the Atlanta community at this time as many are ready to join us in providing a welcome to these new Americans.

Please check out our latest action alert for ways you can advocate for Afghan Allies- the link can be found on our bio under our blog.

For ways you can get involved with families once they arrive in Georgia, please go to our website and the ‘Get Involved’ section to learn about our volunteer process, or reach out to our partners at The Welcome Co-op to support housing and apartment set up needs. #afghanallies #siv

New American Pathways is part of The Welcome Co-op, a collaboration that primarily supports Atlanta’s resettlement community through apartment set up. They posted this urgent need on their Facebook page- can you help?

“Because of the current situation in Afghanistan, the US is airlifting Afghans who served with the US military and processing them for immediate resettlement through our member agencies Catholic Charities Atlanta, International Rescue Committee Atlanta, New American Pathways, and Inspiritus. We are in urgent need of permanent housing in which to place these families. If you or someone you know has a home for rent or if you know of available apartments for rent, please contact John Arnold: john@welcomeco-op.org. Thank you!”

“Getting the shot was so easy! Thank you for helping us.”

"Due to age and health conditions, Mr. H was at elevated risk during the pandemic. He and his daughters, who also serve as his caregivers, remained homebound primarily out of concern for their safety. They were nervous at first about getting vaccinated. Still, after several conversations with others who had received the shot and with New American Pathways case management staff, they decided to protect themselves and their community. New American Pathways, along with community partner @ethnehealth shared vaccine information, assisted in scheduling the appointment, and provided transportation to and interpretation during the vaccine appointment for Mr. H and his family."

Thank you Center for Disaster Philanthropy for featuring New AP and for your support for our COVID-19 emergency response efforts. We’ve helped over 150 individuals secure vaccine appointments this year and continue to work with refugees and immigrants to ensure they are protected against COVID-19. Read the full article in @funds4disaster bio!

Thank you so much @forthekidatl for donating backpacks for our back to school drive! We are so grateful for your ongoing support and partnership. We had a big goal this year as we expect to welcome many more refugee families to Georgia in the coming months and this donation helped us meet that goal.

Roxana Castillo, Summer Advancement Intern, shares about herself and her time with New American Pathways: “Hello, my name is Roxana Castillo Rivas. I am a rising junior studying nursing. I was born in Cuba and came to the United States at four years old as a political refugee; one of the many reasons why I am so excited to be working alongside New American Pathways to fulfill their mission. My experience with New AP has been insightful and fulfilling- I loved meeting my coworkers and interacting with clients." Thank you so much for your dedication to our mission, Roxana! You have made such a lasting impact!

The New AP Education and Youth team was thrilled to provide some limited in person activities for students this summer. For one of the last activities of summer camp, they took students on a field trip to Stone Mountain. The students loved the dinosaurs, playing with tadpoles at the top of the mountain, and the 4D movie experience. It was a great way to finish out the summer with some safe in person activites and everyone had a lot of fun!

Thanks to all our Backpack Donation supporters! Your contributions were tremendous and we successfully achieved our goal of collecting over 500 backpacks. New AP thanks you for your generosity. #community #refugees #givingback
