CCC statement on suspension of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program

Updated: Jan 30

The new administration has indefinitely paused refugee resettlement and suspended payment on current contracts that enable CCC and other resettlement providers to serve refugees who have recently been authorized to come to the United States. 


With millions of dollars in federal funding gone, recently arrived refugees are deeply impacted.  


Since October, CCC has welcomed 348 legally authorized refugees to communities across Eastern, Central, and Southwest Virginia. Most are still in their first 90 days when the need for support is the most critical.


CCC remains committed to assisting refugee families and is diligently working to identify emergency resources to fill the funding gap that is desperately needed to provide the promised support our clients expect and deserve.
