The author looks at both formal and informal programs and services offered by the city as well as nonprofit organizations. The results highlight the importance of understanding the histories and cultural backgrounds of newly arrived refugees to facilitate their integration and inclusion in the school system most effectively. The study concludes that there is a need for increased collaboration between the city and educational nonprofits to improve the integration of refugees in the city of Worcester.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords: <\/strong>education, resettlement programs<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cataloged by:<\/strong> Peter Nelson\/ B.
