A Discussion on Refugee Mental Health

Welcome to the Switchboard Podcast. Switchboard is a one-stop resource hub for refugee service providers in the United States, funded by the Office of Refugee Resettlement. We provide resources, training, communities of practice, and programmatic assistance for programs funded by the ORR.

This episode features a conversation with Megan Rafferty, Switchboard's training officer with a focus on mental health and wellness, and Selina Máté, Switchboard's digital content manager with a background in case management. We discuss ways to support newcomers with a trauma-informed lens.
