New Beginnings

Refugee resettlement to the United States is often the last option displaced people have for a permanent home. The opportunity is available to less than one percent of the world’s refugees. Once in the U.S., in cities like Nashville, refugees are expected to build new lives. Host Danielle Colburn Allen explores why these neighbors left their native countries behind and set out to make a new beginning in Nashville.
