Refugee Admissions Program

The Refugee Admissions Program (RAP) is a U.S. initiative that allows individuals fleeing persecution in their home countries to seek safety in the United States. It involves a thorough vetting process to ensure that applicants are genuine refugees facing threats due to factors like race, religion, nationality, or political opinion. Once approved, refugees can apply for permanent residency and eventually citizenship. The program promotes humanitarian support and offers a new beginning for those who have experienced severe hardships, while also balancing national security considerations.
