Book Synopsis
The UN Refugee Agency reported 79.5 million people were displaced worldwide in 2019, and over half of all displaced persons were under eighteen. This book investigates Canada's current response to refugee youth, highlighting how Halifax, NS, as a mid-sized urban centre, has mobilized services and resources to support young people seeking refuge.

Trade Review

“Lucid and succinct, this important book introduces a resilience approach to refugee resettlement that highlights the important roles of school boards, settlement agencies, recreation programs, and many other local institutions in vulnerable youths’ successful integration. Finding Safe Harbour provides invaluable insight into the challenges and opportunities that newcomers encounter in small and medium-sized cities, the emerging destinations for many Canadian immigrants.” Valerie Preston, York University
