County Refugee Program Guidelines
The County Refugee Program Guidelines have been revised to better assist counties that receive Refugee Social Services, Targeted Assistance, and other federal Office of Refugee Resettlement funds to operate their refugee programs. The contents of the Guidelines have been updated with current information and requirements and redesigned to be more reader-friendly. These Guidelines supersede those that were previously issued in Refugee Coordinator Letter 99-08, dated April 29, 1999.
The Guidelines are 45 pages in length, including Exhibits. To lessen the download time to the user, the Guidelines have been divided into the various sections listed in the Table of Contents page. In addition, the Guidelines are in Adobe Acrobat portable document format (pdf) which can only be viewed and printed using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader.
If you have any questions regarding the Guidelines, please send an email to RPB@dss.ca.gov. Please use the Contact Us for web site related questions or comments.
