Tatiana's Story
Finding America from Ukraine
Tatiana fled the war in Ukraine with little more than the clothes on her back and her eight-year-old son’s hand in hers. After a difficult journey, the Global Refuge partner network was there to provide critical services and a warm welcome as Tatiana and her son prepared to reunite with family in the U.S.
