-------------------------------------------------- Last Chance to Offer Input On New Chief of Police!
May 3rd at Harding High * May 4th at Humboldt High Info: http://www.e-democracy.org/stpaul/chief.html -------------------------------------------------- Hi folks.... On May 12, a presentation on the health status of the refugees will be broadcast on Channel 6, the metro cable outlet beginning at 2:30 PM. The refugee situation continues to be challenging not only because of the Hmong resettlement, but also because of the continuing arrival of refugees from east and west Africa, Bosnian, and we recently learned of between 100 and 400 Burmese are also expected to arrive in Ramsey County. Last year, 560 refugees settled in Ramsey County, most from Africa. In the next twelve months, we expect over 2000 refugees. The raw number seems high, but the average refugee family is 6 people, so we are talking about 330-400 families. That view is helpful in thinking about housing and other services.
