World Refugee Day is a global celebration of the strength, resilience, and hope of people who have experienced forced displacement. We honor them and stand alongside our communities and partners in recognizing the human value of each person seeking safety.

“Together, we hold the power and the responsibility to not just avert but eliminate the threat of genocide from our era so that what we as genocide survivors have experienced is truly only in our past,” said Ayda Zugay, Delegate for Massachusetts.
