In
the late 1970s, Jesuit Fr. Pedro Arrupe
(above), then Superior General of the
Society of Jesus, was moved by the
perilous journeys to exile of the Viet-
namese boat people.
Fr. Arrupe appealed to Jesuit Major Superiors —
leaders of Jesuit Provinces and other administrative
bodies — for practical assistance. The spontaneous
and generous ‘first wave of action’ provoked him to
reflect on how much more the Society of Jesus could
do if their responses to this, and to other contem-
porary crises of forced human displacement, were
planned and coordinated.
On November 14, 1980, Fr. Arrupe announced the birth
of Jesuit
Refugee Service.
The history of JRS reflects the lives and hopes of
people we serve, people with whom we stand side
by side, people we know personally.
This personal knowledge constantly transforms our
understanding. JRS opens a door into the inspiring
lives of people struggling to defend their rights, pro-
tect their families and give their children a future.
Our mission is to accompany, serve and advocate for the
rights of refugees and other forcibly displaced persons.
• To accompany means to be a companion. We are
companions of Jesus, so we wish to be companions
of those with whom he preferred to be associated,
the poor and the outcast.
• JRS services are made available to refugees and
displaced persons regardless of their race, ethnic
origin, or religious beliefs.
• JRS advocates for just and generous policies and
programs for the benefit of victims of forced dis-
placement so that those made vulnerable by exile
can receive support and protection and durable
solutions to their plight can be achieved.
 Dear Friends of Jesuit Refugee Service/USA,
Not long ago I traveled to Kakuma refugee camp in
northern Kenya to visit JRS psychosocial and education
programs there. I met Benard, a young refugee from
war-ridden Somalia, who was caring for a young child
with cerebral palsy. When I asked about the child, Benard
shared with me that the child was a distant cousin of his.
Fleeing violence, the child’s
parents had no choice but to
leave the child in Benard’s care,
promising to come for him in a
few days. They never returned,
their fate unknown. Soon after,
Benard and his cousin were
displaced themselves by the
Somali conflict, and after a dif-
ficult journey reached Kakuma.
The child chews and swallows
with difficulty. Special food,
Armando Borja
which is difficult to access in
the camp, is required for his nu-
tritional needs. JRS is committed
to accompanying and supporting Benard by providing the
proper food and other necessities as he raises his cousin.
On World Refugee Day, Pope Francis urged everyone to
accompany refugees: “Let us be their neighbors, share
their fears and uncertainty about the future, and take
concrete steps to reduce their suffering.” Jesuit Refugee
Service strives, as the Pope urges, to be neighbors to ref-
ugees and displaced persons, with particular care to the
most vulnerable.
In 2014, we bore witness to thousands of asylum seekers
Afghanistan: Class at
Kabul’s Sultana school.
(Peter Balleis S.J. — JRS)
arriving at our own border from Central America — Gua-
temala, El Salvador and Honduras, three of the most
violent countries in the world. From October 2013 to
September 2014, 65,000 children — fleeing gang related
violence and sexual abuse and exploitation — turned
themselves in to U.S. immigration authorities.
The protection of unaccompanied children and asylum
seekers, including women travelling with children, is
at the heart of our advocacy efforts. Mothers arriving
with children are being incarcerated and are subject to
an expedited deportation process. JRS/USA opposes the
detention of mothers with children and the expedited
process, and we are advocating for alternatives to de-
tention and for protection of the due process rights of all
asylum seekers.
The spirit of accompaniment — a core tenet of our JRS
mission — drives our courageous colleagues in Afghan-
istan to educate returned refugee children — including
girls, which is unpopular with extremists. Fr. Alexis Prem
Kumar S.J., the JRS Afghanistan country director, was
kidnapped last June and held for more than eight months
before being freed. During Fr. Prem’s captivity, JRS contin-
ued its education programs, declaring that Fr. Prem would
not want deprive students of the opportunity to learn the
skills they need to be leaders in their community, and to
build a peaceful, strong Afghanistan.
While working in settings of prolonged crisis, JRS also
works in emergency situations such as Syria. Currently,
JRS is one of very few international groups remaining in
Syria, providing urgent support to Syrians in need.
I’m reminded of Bish, a 75-year-old woman targeted be-
 Kenya: Early education program for young refugees at Kakuma camp. (Christian Fuchs — JRS/USA)
cause of her Christian faith. A group of armed men invad-
ed her home, lit her mattresses on fire and forced her to
walk over the burning beds to “remove demons from her
soul.” Miraculously, they spared her life, and she and her
sister fled to Damascus. JRS provided them with medical
care and helped them find a place to stay.
The South Sudan crisis, the outbreak of violence in the
Central African Republic, continuing instability in the
Democratic Republic of Congo and Somalia, intensifying
conflict in Syria and Iraq, and other acute crisis situations
have stretched the world’s humanitarian response struc-
ture to their limits.
There are 51 million refugees in the world, people like Be-
nard and Bish: ordinary people in extraordinary situations
who are simply trying to meet the needs of their families.
Thankfully there are also stalwart people like our JRS
colleagues in Kenya, Afghanistan and Syria helping these
refugees and their communities become independent and
self-sufficient.
Earlier this year, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees
noted, “Today’s humanitarian emergencies are beyond
anything we have experienced in living memory. Unless
we urgently change the way we tackle them, the world
will become an increasingly difficult place to live for mil-
lions of people who have already lost almost everything.”
As we face these challenges we will continue our mission
to defend the rights of refugees and migrants throughout
the world. JRS advocates for just and generous poli-
cies and programs for the benefit of victims of forced
displacement, so people made vulnerable by exile can
receive support and protection, and so a durable solution
to their plight can be achieved.
JRS/USA works with an international network of JRS pro-
grams in more than fifty countries, and with other human
rights and refugee assistance organizations to tell the sto-
ry of the “forgotten” refugee. JRS seeks to make a direct
and lifesaving impact on the well-being of refugees and
forced migrants by bringing field-based accounts of needs
that too often do not make the headlines to your atten-
tion, and to the attention of policy makers in the U.S., and
by proposing specific actions solve problems.
When Pope Francis spoke on World Refugee Day, he
closed by saying, “May the Lord sustain those people and
institutions who work with generosity to assure a wel-
come to refugees, recognize their dignity and give them
reasons for hope.” As an important partner of JRS, you are
one of these people the pontiff speaks of, and all of us at
Jesuit Refugee Service/USA thank you for your support
and partnership.

 Detention Chaplaincy Program
Jesuit Refugee Service works in more
than 50 countries worldwide to meet
the educational, health, social and
other needs of refugees and other
forcibly displaced persons. In the Unit-
ed States, JRS/USA manages a Deten-
tion Chaplaincy Program that provides
religious services to detained migrants
and asylum seekers in five centers
across the U.S.
Chaplains in detention centers are
similar to chaplains in the military.
Military chaplains serve people of all
faiths and all ranks, and detention
center chaplains serve everyone in the
facility — inmates and guards alike
— regardless of their religion. Jesuit
Refugee Service/USA believes that
ensuring detainee access to a Religious
Service Program is vital as everyone
— incarcerated or not — has a funda-
mental right to freedom and exercise
of religion.
In 2014, the JRS/USA chaplaincy
programs provided pastoral and reli-
gious assistance to meet the needs of
non-citizens detained by the Depart-
ment of Homeland Security (DHS) in
three U.S. federal detention centers:
El Paso, Texas; Florence, Ariz.; and
Batavia, N.Y. For several months, we
also ministered in the family deten-
tion center in Artesia, New Mexico; it
has since been closed. In March 2015,
we added detention centers in Los
Fresnos, Texas, and Miami, Fla., to our
program.
The religious services program ad-
dresses a broad range of detainee
needs. Examples include conducting
worship services, providing coun-
seling, accommodating requests for
new religious practices, facilitating
observance of holy days, maintain-
ing religious property in a respectful
manner, allowing detainees to fast as
needed, and ensuring detainees the
opportunity to comply with dietary
requirements.
In October, Bishop Gerald Kicanas
of the Diocese of Tucson visited the
Florence Federal Detention Center to
celebrate Mass. The men in detention

 A Voice for the Voiceless
USA: Unaccompanied children are held by U.S. Customs and Border Protection after they crossed the Texas
border into the United States. (Eddie Perez — Customs and Border Protection)
Migration from El Salvador, Guatema-
la and Honduras rose steadily in the
spring and summer as violence in the
region has increased. Jesuit Refugee
Service/USA was particularly con-
cerned about the increased presence
of three sub-groups in the migration:
unaccompanied children, asylum-seek-
ers, and women traveling with very
young children.
Seeking refuge from a tide of violence
against youth in their home countries,
these asylum seekers made the per-
ilous thousand-mile trip north in the
desperate hope of finding security and
building new lives. Jesuit Refugee Ser-
vice/USA believes the U.S. should live
up to its tradition of fairness and gen-
erosity toward refugees and migrants,
and uphold international standards for
the treatment of those seeking refuge
in this country. Improvements in U.S.
law and policy are needed to protect
the rights of asylum seekers, forcibly
displaced people, vulnerable migrants,
and detained immigrants in the United
States.
Working in partnership with the
8
Jesuit Conference and other secular
and faith-based organizations, JRS/
USA urged that U.S. aid and policies
towards Central America invest in
community and evidence-based vio-
lence prevention programs, strength-
en judicial systems’ ability to reduce
impunity, improve governments’
ability and political will to uphold and
protect the human rights and labor
rights of their citizens, expand pro-
tection for children and women, and
improve opportunities for employment
and education, especially for youth.
We believe these actions will help to
address this humanitarian crisis in a
sustainable way.
Children would not be fleeing Central
America alone and in such numbers
without serious situations that compel
them to undertake these dangerous
journeys. JRS/USA and our partners
have urged the United States to ad-
dress the factors driving this migration
in a compassionate, reasonable and
sustainable manner.
JRS/USA believes the U.S. cannot
continue asking countries like Jordan,
Turkey and Lebanon to keep their
borders open in the face of large
numbers of people seeking protection
from violence in Syria if it is unwilling
to compassionately review the asylum
and protection claims of desperate
people who arrive at its own border.
As an agency engaged in the educa-
tion of tens of thousands of refugee
children around the world, Jesuit
Refugee Service is deeply concerned
with the needs of vulnerable refu-
gee children. In partnership with JRS
regional offices, JRS/USA has advocat-
ed for more flexible and rapid needs
assessment system and for solutions
to protect refugee children from harm.
We advocate for improvements in
policy and procedures to ensure ref-
ugee children do not languish due to
bureaucratic processes that fail to give
them the priority care then deserve.
In emergency settings, JRS advocates
that children have access to quality
education, both for its intrinsic value
and as a way to provide access to a
safe environment where trauma can
be healed and hope provided.
 Sharing Our Mission with Students
JRS/USA serves as the major refugee
outreach arm of U.S. Jesuits and their
ministries in mobilizing their response
to refugee situations in the U.S. and
abroad. To foster this mobilization,
we launched an Outreach Program in
2010 to reach out directly to students
and parishioners around the country.
In doing so, we hope to both raise
awareness of the plight of refugees
and forcibly displaced people and fos-
ter increased participation in solving
the problems faced by refugees.
Schools welcoming JRS/USA Outreach

 Responding Globally

Chad: Biology teacher Abdella Ahmed takes questions from his students at Kounoungou refugee camp, about 20 kilometers from
Guereda in the east of the country. With funding provided by a grant from the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refu-
gees and Migration, Jesuit Refugee Service provides secondary education to refugees from the Darfur region of Sudan in Kounoungou
camp and several other refugee camps in Chad. (Christian Fuchs — JRS/USA)

South Sudan: Pau Vidal S.J. conducts a teacher training class in

Christians and Muslims alike, without discrimination. When I visit the
JRS nursery school or English or teacher training classes, and realise
that both Christians and Muslims are seated side by side, learning
together, I am filled with hope. A brighter future is possible,” says Fr.
Pau. (Angela Wells — JRS)

Thanks to a grant from the U.S. De-
partment of State’s Bureau of Popula-
tion, Refugees and Migration (BPRM),
JRS provides secondary education
in Chad for refugees from Darfur in
camps in the east of the country, near
the border with Sudan.
The funds help ensure that secondary
school students access quality second-
ary education by providing education
materials and promoting enrollment,
attendance, and academic achieve-
ment. JRS also seeks to strengthen the
teaching skills of teachers in second-
ary schools through the provision of
teaching materials, on-going teacher
training, and monitoring of teachers.
2014 also saw efforts to respond to
the needs of desperate refugees flee-
ing from renewed violence in South
Sudan.
Responding to the urgent requests of
JRS staff in Kakuma refugee camp in
Kenya, JRS/USA met with U.S. policy
agencies to report the effect that the
need to shelter and feed thousands of
additional men, women and children
was having on in the already desper-
ately overcrowded camp conditions,
prompting additional emergency
resources to be provided.
A BPRM-funded social services pro-
gram at Kakuma helps improve the
psychological well-being — and reduc-
tion of stress-related health prob-
lems — of refugees in the camp. JRS
services increase insight into psycho-
logical problems and enhance coping
mechanisms for refugees.
Additionally, the JRS program works
to decrease the trauma of sexual and
gender-based violence survivors by

Kenya: Kakuma refugee camp in northern Kenya saw an influx of new refugees fleeing the crisis in South Sudan during 2014,
stretching camp resources. JRS/USA advocated to U.S. policy makers and prompted emergency resources to be provided. The camp
is vast and home to more than 160,000 people from multiple countries. Two JRS Safe Havens — one for adolescent boys and another
for girls, single women and mothers with their children — provide physical and emotional protection; safe spaces within the camp
for those caught in a cycle of violence. (Christian Fuchs — Jesuit Refugee Service/USA)

cility and offering counseling services.
JRS also is striving to improve the
psychosocial well being of intellectu-
ally and developmentally challenged
persons and their families via training
and support.
In the Mai Aini camp in the north of
Ethiopia, JRS utilizes a BPRM grant to
promote the mental and physical well
being of refugees, particularly youth,
through the provision of library ser-
vices and recreational activities such
as sports, music, theatre and dance.
Camp life can be brutally dull, and
combined with promise of better
prospects elsewhere refugees may
seek to leave and fall victim to human
traffickers. It is important for both
their physical and mental well being
that children — and adults — be given
the opportunity to pass their time in a

Thailand: Mae Hong Son camp one is located in the Shan hills, about 45 minutes walking distance from the
Myanmar border and is hard to access, especially during monsoon season when the rivers flood, roads turn into riv-
ers and the camp feels like a steam room. The camp hosts around 13,000 Karenni refugees from Kayah State in Myan-
mar. About 10,000 have been resettled, mostly to the U.S., over the last several years. JRS mainly works in education

food aid, education, and other assis-
tance for those refugees in protracted
situations who are in danger of being
forgotten, such as the Burmese in Thai-
land, who are confined to camps and
entirely dependent for their survival
on international support.
While camps are still the setting one
thinks of when discussing refugee
issues, the reality is that more than
half of the world’s refugees now live in
urban areas, and assistance to refu-
gees in urban settings is complicated
by their invisibility within the urban
population, and in many cases by
negative attitudes on the part of local
residents and officials.

and community focused support.
JRS continues to be a leading voice
in advocacy for urban refugees, who
— hidden in plain sight —are some-
times among the most neglected and
exploited populations. As part of the
Urban Refugee Task Team, JRS/USA
played a significant role in worldwide
efforts to identify and disseminate
best practices in urban programming.

 Syria: A $25,000 grant from The Ohrstrom Foundation enabled JRS to assist displaced families within Syria via the provision of
food and non-food items such as clothing, blankets and related supplies, to help meet some of the most basic and essential needs
of those displaced or affected by the violent conflict. JRS distributed food baskets through two field kitchens operating in Damascus,
which serve hundreds of Syrians in shelters on a daily basis (six days per week), in several neighborhoods. The Ohrstrom Foundation’s
support also provided additional support to families in particularly high distress through cash support for rent or other essential
expenses. (Gebrail Saud — JRS)

 Syria: The rising numbers of people injured directly
by the Syrian conflict are compounded by those with
“ordinary” health issues: chronic illnesses, disabili-
ties, people in need of routine care who now lack the
resources to receive treatment. A $40,000 grant from
The J. Homer Butler Foundation enables JRS to provide
some medical services.
In Homs, where 50 percent of the city’s inhabitants
are displaced, JRS is uniquely situated to respond to
the needs of both the IDPs and families still in their
homes. JRS has coordinated a network of 40 local lay
people of all faith traditions to operate clinics in Homs
and Meshta el-Helou, and to conduct in-home services.
Professionals at each clinic provide medication, physio-
therapy, medical consultations, psychological support,
surgical referrals, and supplies to 6,000 of the area’s
most vulnerable — namely women, children and the
elderly — who cannot afford care in the area’s seven
private hospitals.
Staff and volunteers risk their lives daily, navigating
checkpoints and road closures to secure medicines and
supplies from nearby cities. They assume the risks of
sniper fire during home visits, and reprisals from forces
on all sides of the conflict by attending to all in need
regardless of affiliation or ability to pay for services. JRS
volunteers and staff are compelled by the understand-
ing that procuring insulin, undergoing surgery, or ob-
taining sound prenatal care are necessities that cannot
be suspended by war.
The devolution of public services and the rising cost of
private medical facilities has made healthcare inacces-
sible to Syria’s millions of displaced persons. Without
the services provided by JRS’ two charitable clinics, the
people of Homs and Meshta el-Helou would have no
recourse for healthcare. Although JRS cannot fully stem
the threat of violence against these populations, this
project can address the mortal threats indirectly caused
by the chaos of civil war. (Gebrail Saud — JRS)

 Kenya: A $10,000 grant from The
Loyola Foundation provides bicy-
cles for counselors, enabling them to
more efficiently conduct home visits
in the vastness of Kakuma camp. JRS
is currently the only organization
in Kakuma providing psychosocial
support. As part of those services,
540 refugees serve as peer coun-
selors for more than 2,000 fellow
refugees. In addition to the direct
service provided those being coun-
seled, the peer counseling program
serves as leadership development for
counselors as they strive to improve
their own community. This is in line
with our mission of accompaniment,
working with instead of for refugees,
empowering them to lead their own
communities and transform their
own realities.
Despite efforts of peer counsel-
ors, one of the biggest issues they
face, especially women, is lack of
safety when traveling to and from
the counseling site in the sprawl-
ing refugee camp. Peer counselors,
many female, walk long distances
through what is essentially a large
town to reach refugee families need-
ing psychosocial care. Bicycles allow
counselors to travel more quickly
and safely around Kakuma and to
reach many more families.
“Since I received the new bicycle,
counseling sessions are more effec-
tive in terms of time and the number
of sessions not missed or delayed. I
was so thrilled to receive the bicycle
because it has assisted me a lot,”
said JRS counselor Kavi Moran.
The grant enabled JRS to purchase
69 bicycles for the peer counselors
last year. JRS staff can access com-
munity members with greater ease
as visits and follow-ups are easier to
execute. Additionally, as traveling
time is reduced staff members are
able to handle more clients.
