The National Refugee Leadership and Lived Experiences Council (NRLLEC) is a federal initiative of the Department of Health & Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), and is led by Refugee Congress in partnership with Refugee Council USA, Every Campus A Refuge, Church World Service, and USA Hello. The council will provide feedback on program impact and population needs. The first cohort will focus on refugee youth ages 18-24.
ECAR’s role in the partnership is to co-lead on Monitoring and Evaluation as well as support the council member selection process, the development of training courses for council members, and the implementation of events and activities.
At ECAR, Christian Matheis leads the Monitoring and Evaluation piece of the program.
