I just received notice of this site launch:


Visit the newly launched Cultural Orientation Website at 
http://www.culturalorientation.net 


This website, developed at the Center for Applied Linguistics,  was
established to create linkages between overseas providers of cultural
orientation (CO) training and domestic resettlement programs. The
website...

*	provides trainers overseas with links to information about resettlement
in the United States.
*	informs resettlement caseworkers on type and length of training provided
to refugees overseas.
*	provides basic facts about new refugee groups arriving in the U.S.
*	offers CO activities for trainers overseas and in the U.S.
