Orientation Video for Somali Bantu Refugees
This 20-minute employment orientation video, produced in both Af-Maay and English versions, helps newly arrived refugees navigate the path to economic self-sufficiency in the United States by sharing the experiences of Somali Bantu who are already employed or actively seeking work. The video covers the continuum of steps on the path to work from individual employment planning, through career laddering. Somali Bantu who are establishing their lives in the United States offer guidance and encouragement to newer arrivals.
