The Full 2021 Refugee
Experiences Report
Every two years, PANA conducts a survey of refugees in San Diego County to better understand the experiences, challenges, and needs of our communities. This year’s report is particularly timely as it reveals how refugees are fairing through the global pandemic, the economic downturn, and the rise in white supremacy, Islamophobia, and hate crimes. In our 2020 survey, we interviewed 544 refugees and first-generation community members about health, employment, housing, COVID-19, education, and their sense of safety and belonging.
