“Hakizimana Muvunye, a refugee from Congo who lives in Cleveland, is a man doing his best.”
"I need to take care of my family," he said. Muvunye and his wife, Irene Twizere, have five children.
The partnership between US Together and the federal resettlement office is an example of how nonprofits and government agencies are working together here and in other regions, such as Buffalo, N.Y., to help as the number of refugees coming to the United States, especially from Afghanistan and Ukraine, is increasing. Welcoming new refugees and immigrants matters to the Midwest and other regions because they may help shift declining populations and boost local economies with new businesses.
Joe Cimperman. president of Global Cleveland, says programs to help newcomers need support from all sectors. Ohio ranked sixth in the number of refugees resettled in 2019, just behind states with larger populations like California, New York, and Texas. About 1,500 refugees resettled in Ohio in 2019, with about 500 coming yearly to Cleveland.
Baiju Shah, CEO of Greater Cleveland Partnership, the region's chamber of commerce, says welcoming refugees and immigrants is"a huge priority."
