Purpose of this Guide
This Guide has been developed for teachers and other school personnel to assist them in welcoming and supporting students, and families who have come from a refugee background. It is designed to:
- provide background information about the refugee experience,
- offer support strategies and suggestions for teachers and other members of the school community who will be working with these children and youth and their families, and
- provide information about resources that teachers and other school and district personnel may find helpful as they prepare for the arrival of new students and families – and for their ongoing support.
