Refers to programs that offer services for refugees and approved asylees. An example is the Refugee Training Center at Montgomery Community College (Maryland) that provide vocationally-focused English language instruction and assessment and scholarship opportunities to facilitate successful integration and full participation in the community; provide a supportive learning environment; and promote the development of inter-cultural competence. The program serves: Refugees; Political asylees; Cuban and Haitian parolees; Victims of human trafficking; and Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) holders. Individuals are eligible for services within 5 years of arrival in the U.S. or for asylees, 5 years from the date asylum was granted.
