More people are displaced worldwide today than any time in history. More than 75 million have been uprooted from their homes and been forced to relocate, either within their own country or beyond its borders.

The Isaac Ishmael Initiative serves as an advocate and partner for displaced persons and refugees in helping them have a voice in the world and in finding new homes. Our work includes meeting with government agencies in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East to advocate for human rights. We serve under-represented people in the Kurdish region of Iraq, in the West Bank of Israel, and in Jordan.
