ABSTRACT With the exception of the last three fiscal years, there has been a consistent influx of refugees being resettled to the U.S. during the last 20 years from Somalia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Bhutan. Although there is existing literature examining the obstacles that recently resettled refugee families face, the ways in which these obstacles influence parenting has not been widely studied. For organizations to best serve these populations, a solid understanding of newly resettled refugee parents’ experiences and opportunities for support is crucial. The purpose of this current study was to determine the needs of newly resettled refugee parents, specifically from Somalia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Bhutan, and the obstacles that influence their parenting in a Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S.
