"The Burmese Come to Houston"
Houston has become a magnet for refugees from all over the world. Recently, an increasing number of Burmese families are seeking shelter in the Texas city. The families are severely limited in their financial support and struggle with the small window of time they have to acclimate to a new culture due to the "outdated" and "underfunded" U.S. resettlement program.
