SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ORR announces the intent to award a
supplement to Upwardly Global's Refugee Career Pathways program due to
the significant need for career training among recent Afghan arrivals
to the U.S. under Operation Allies Welcome (OAW). Following
resettlement, Afghan entrants will be required to quickly secure
employment as a pathway to self-sufficiency. Without training in career
opportunities in the U.S., many Afghan entrants will have great
difficulty identifying employment opportunities that offer a path to
economic self-sufficiency by drawing upon their professional skills and
background.
Statutory Authority: Immigration and Nationality Act Sec.
412(c)(1)(A), 8 U.S.C. 1522(c)(1)(A).

Senior Grants Policy Specialist, Office of Grants Policy, Office of
