ICMC helps resettle Afghan, Iranian and Iraqi refugees in the U.S

Article Abstract:

The International Catholic Migration Commission (ICMC) is a Geneva-based agency that handles the processing of refugees in the Pakistani refugee camps for future resettlement in the US. The refugee population in these camps managed by ICMC are composed of Afghans who have fled from the Revolution in Kabul, Iranians who ran away from the political upheavals in Iran and the Iraqis who fled from the Iran-Iraq war. These refugees go through interviews by the US Immigration and Naturalization Service to determine if they are qualified for resettlement.
