The 6th street experience
Join us for a walk-through experience outlining 3 different immigration processes: The Refugee Journey, Seeking Asylum and Afghan Placement and Assistance, current information and actions regarding immigration, and the opportunity to learn more about the home cultures of many of our neighbors in Oklahoma.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
This experience is for anyone! It is meant to be a powerful tool for individuals and groups alike with a hope to learn more about what the immigration process entails, what the refugee journey can look like, and what it means to welcome our neighbors.
We encourage you to bring friends, family, and student or church groups to engage with this timely content and powerful stories.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
As of January 2025, the refugee resettlement process has been effectively dismantled. We aim for people to understand the truth about immigration and resettlement and to feel the hope and resilience that has been shared with us from our neighbors. Oklahoma City (and the U.S.) must remain a place of welcome and belonging.
Whether you are ready for action steps to continue welcoming neighbors or you're simply curious about the process, you'll encounter helpful information and perspectives.
