Refugee Speakers Bureau
Building bridges between cultures through storytelling
Established in 2015, this program of the Idaho Office for Refugees provides Idahoans who arrived in the U.S. as refugees and immigrants with training to engage in public dialogue and reach out to the community. Participants share their stories in as speakers at meetings and events, and at schools, businesses, and other places in the Treasure Valley and throughout Idaho.
