Today’s episode features a conversation with Mariti Zirarusha (also known as Martin), who with his parents and six siblings were resettled in Tucson, Arizona, as refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Martin shares about his time living in the Kyangwali Refugee Camp in Uganda, the journey to become acclimated to life in a new community in the U.S., and the joy of feeling at home. In addition to attending high school, Martin participates in the Refugee Youth Mentorship Program (RYMP), led by Melissa Benvegno-Bryant of LSS-SW-Tucson.
