Abstract

There is a long history in Canada of how Christian-based organizations/individuals have sponsored and resettle refugees and their families. This is seen as they offer hospitality, moral support and practical insights for contemporary responses to the needs of refugees. These organizations/individuals respond to the needs of refugees in times of difficulties, provide for their necessities and help them to integrate faster and better into their community. I will like to research on how Christian-based organizations/individuals have effectively handled refugee resettlement issues under the PRS program since its inception in 1978.
