Delegate for Minnesota

Meriem is the Refugee Congress Delegate for Minnesota.
This guide, informed by seasoned leaders and storytellers who have experienced forced displacement, aims to walk you through the process of what to consider before, during, and after storytelling opportunities to keep yourself and your communities safe. Each section includes checklists with items to consider to help you feel prepared and safe at each stage, and first hand accounts from storytellers who have been through the process before so you can learn from their experiences.
Refugee Congress is excited to welcome three new members to our Board of Directors: Senka Filipovich, Teddi Jallow, and Colin Rajah.
Refugee Congress calls on Congress to honor its promises by restoring TPS and passing the Fulfilling Promises to Afghan Allies Act. Failure to act puts our Afghan neighbors, colleagues, and friends in danger and undermines U.S. trust and leadership to allies around the world. Our leaders must demonstrate that the United States keeps its word, protects those who are seeking safety, and ensures Afghan families can rebuild their lives in dignity.
