Miry's List: Welcoming Resettling Refugee Families in 2026

Support resettling refugees today!

Miry's List is a community support system for new arrival refugee families in the U.S. that nurtures the culture of welcoming newcomers through family-to-family and friend-to-friend connections. 

We are in a moment in history marked by profound pain and powerful collective movement. Here in California and across the country, we are not only seeing this in news headlines, we are hearing it directly from the families we support.  Though the landscape of resources available to resettling refugee families when they arrive has dramatically shifted, Miry's List continues unwavering support for incoming refugees and those already in the U.S. in 2026. We are the neighbors, and we aren't going anywhere.

Miry's List provides a mechanism for people to directly help new arrival refugee families with the incredible challenge of resettlement in the U.S. With practical support and community joy waiting to welcome them, resettling families are set up to thrive through 12 months of wrap-around programming that fills gaps in and extends long beyond government support. 

Since 2016, we’ve engaged over 250,000 American people to support more than 2,500 families who have come through the Federal Refugee Resettlement program from countries including Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Ukraine, Moldova, and Guatemala.

10 years ago, one family needed help.

Today, our staff of 10 and hundreds of thousands of American welcomers are part of a movement supporting new arrival refugee families in the U.S.

Miry's List is 10! That's a decade of helping refugee families transform arrival into belonging. 

In the last ten years, we've:

  • Supported over 2,500 newcomer families
  • Engaged over 286,000 American people in welcoming new arrival families
  • Welcomed new arrival families resettling in 31 states

Thank you for the part you've played in helping us get to this milestone.

With appreciation,

Miry and the whole team
