As an immigrant from Liberia, I've faced many issues living in the United States. Immigrants who have lived through wars and carried the fear of war with them have a hard time settling into a new life. Immigrants also face unique challenges, such as language barriers and cultural barriers, which further slow their ability to access health-care services and the legal process. They have physical and mental health issues, employment difficulties, family conflicts and more.
If the community can help out these legal immigrants, it will make it easier for them to live in freedom and take the thought of war from their minds.
