About

Delaware County Citizens for Refugee Support

DCCRS (Delaware County Citizens for Refugee Support) was formed in 2021 by Delaware County residents Dan Gashler, Esther Lee, Sangeeta Pratap, and Mina Takahashi. Since our inception, we have studied ways to support refugees and asylum seekers, both through advocacy and through support for resettlement in Delaware County. To that end, we partner with individuals and community groups in Delaware County and beyond, to amplify voices supporting decent and humane treatment for individuals in the asylum system, and to create opportunities for asylum seekers and refugees to rebuild their lives here.
