Refugee resettlement helps displaced individuals rebuild their lives but comes with challenges, especially during funding cuts. Strong communities play a vital role in filling gaps, offering support, and ensuring refugees thrive despite financial constraints. This forum gathers stakeholders to discuss solutions. Key topics include community integration, job access, community support, and policy advocacy. Addressing these areas fosters successful resettlement.

For over 50 years, the Sunday Forum lecture series has showcased provocative, sometimes controversial, speakers discussing topical issues of the day: politics, the environment, health issues, the arts, education, and more. The Sunday Forum is held at 10:00 a.m. September through May. Speakers give a 45-minute presentation, followed by questions and brief comments from the audience. The content of Forum lectures does not necessarily express the viewpoint of First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee, but are meant to offer thoughtful topics which our members often pursue further on their own.
