The California Endowment announced they would grant the International Rescue Committee in Los Angeles (IRC) $306,344 to assist with the relocation of Syrian refugees across California. This money will be used by the IRC to help support the health and mental health needs of Syrian refugees who will be resettling in California. Approximately 10,000 Syrian refugees will be resettled in the U.S. this year, with approximately 25 percent of them to be resettled in California with the San Diego, Sacramento, Los Angeles, Oakland and the Central Valley regions expected to receive the majority of the refugees.
