One year ago this week, Afghanistan fell under Taliban control, prompting a historic evacuation that brought 76,000 Afghans to the United States. The year that followed was momentous—from the massive outpouring of support from the American people, to the large-scale national resettlement effort, and tireless advocacy on behalf of our new neighbors. 

Join Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service for a webinar on August 18 at 11 a.m. ET as we both reflect on the successes and challenges of the last year and look ahead to what's next. Hear from our staff about where Afghan families are today, proposed legislation to support and protect Afghans in the U.S. and abroad, and how your community can support new Americans.
