Abstract:
Although resettlement agencies in the United States assist refugees by offering a variety of local social and health services, refugees are still less likely to access these services. Few studies have evaluated refugee health education interventions focusing on barriers to accessing healthcare and overcoming negative social determinants of health. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and perceived impact of a yearlong health education intervention to empower Burmese refugee women living in Houston, Texas. The intervention included workshops, community excursions, question and a

Due to insufficient communication strategies between healthcare providers and refugees in the United States, this quality improvement project aimed to improve disparity in refugee healthcare. We chose to focus on community pharmacist counseling sessions with refugees in the city of Rochester, New York. The two refugee populations we focused on were the Burmese and Nepali. Due to illiteracy in their native language, the refugees were not receptive to a pamphlet detailing the beneficial roles a pharmacy can have in improving their health and wellbeing.

This study investigates how Burmese refugees were framed by Fort Wayne’s The Journal Gazette located in one of Indiana’s cities where refugee resettlement has taken place over the last two decades.

Results show that the human interest and attribution of responsibility were most salient textual frames, while the visual frame of exotic was dominant. Feature stories were more likely to have a human interest frame and, if an image is included, to reflect the visual frame of Burmese as being exotic. A

Evidence suggests that despite the aid from resettlement agencies, many refugees find the resettlement process extraordinarily stressful and have reported significant negative mental and physical health outcomes.

If the host is aggressive, refugees will retaliate, depending on whether the camps are militarized whereby refugees will have access to weapons and arms. Camp militarization, i
