HHS outlines services under ORR Placement and Coordination program

Ryan Foster, a program analyst with the Administration for Children and Families' Office of Refugee Resettlement, opened the webinar describing the scope of the Placement and Coordination (PC) program and the services awardees must provide. "Placement and coordination will provide services through two components to ORR eligible individuals," Foster said, summarizing initial resettlement activities such as pre-arrival planning, arrival logistics, direct financial assistance, material resettlement support, school enrollment assistance, medical screening and referral to services based on identified needs.
