Making Every Campus a Refuge (ECAR) Washington State University (WSU)

The WSU-Pullman ECAR Chapter has successfully hosted a family in partnership with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and will collaborate with the College of Nursing at WSU-Spokane as an ideal location for expansion. During their inaugural year, WSU-Pullman recognized barriers to health access experienced by refugee families and will work to remove those barriers for refugees settling in Spokane by mobilizing students enrolled in the BSN program. This creates a model whereby student engagement in refugee resettlement assistance can be a valuable educational experience throughout the WSU system.
