Afghan Refugee Support

October 5, 2021

The Washington State Department of Health team has provided helpful resources and information for organizations working to welcome and support new Afghan community members. We would like to acknowledge and thank the organizations working to provide support for the Afghan community amidst the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan. We encourage partners to contact their Outreach Coordinator if they are interested in getting involved.
