Dear Maine: The Trials and Triumphs of Maine’s 21st Century Immigrants [Paperback] Jalali, Reza; Rielly, Morgan and Danielyan, Lilit

“I came to Maine as a refugee and now I get to serve those coming after me! It feels like I have been in training for this position all my life. I know how it feels to be invisible, misunderstood, and not valued. I have a clear understanding of the barriers that newly-arrived immigrants face when they try to rebuild their lives in a white-majority such as Maine.”

—Reza Jalali, author, former refugee, and executive director of the Greater Portland Immigrant Welcome Center
