ORR plans to award a cooperative agreement to qualified organizations with experience and demonstrated capacity to provide innovative and new technical assistance to refugee-serving agencies, as well as main stream service providers. The overall goal is to improve the quality of services provided to refugees and support the long-term integration of refugees in the United States.
