The Biden administration has begun allowing private citizens to sponsor Afghan refugees looking to start a new life in the US. under a program called Sponsor Circle program. According to Vox News, more than 75,000 Afghans have made it into the US through Operation Allies Welcome, and around 52,000\u00a0of them have been resettled in communities across the country. But the rest are still waiting on U.S. military bases, but need help\u00a0to get jobs and enroll their kids in school.

<\/p>

To form a Sponsor Circle, you need at least five adults in your area and raise $2,275 for each Afghan individual you want to resettle in your community. Sponsors commit to assisting them through the first three months there, which can include locating housing, helping adults find jobs, and registering kids for school.

<\/p>

This program is allowing you as a sponsor to speed up the process of resettling Afghans who have already entered the US through what is known as humanitarian parole, but who are stuck on military bases because the official resettlement infrastructure is not capable of expediting their resettlement efforts.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
