Vision

The Afghan American Business Alliance envisions a world where forcibly displaced refugees can use their skills and talents to establish a good life now, and a better life tomorrow. Most refugees have marketable skills. But, unfortunately, in countries where they find themselves at a loss when it comes to showing or using their skills. Hence, they are relegated to public assistance roles where they and their families languish in a state of permanent uncertainty and dependence.

The Afghan American Business Alliance, by engaging the government refugee servicing organizations, the business sector, and the local communities, will create a safe, legal pathway that will enable the refugees to transition from welfare to “workfare,” and to resume their careers, and rebuild their lives with dignity.
