During 2007, Karen refugees began arriving in San Diego from refugee camps in Thailand, brought through United Nations and U.S. Government sponsorship.

Smaller numbers of Chin have subsequently arrived.

The "lost boys"started arriving about 2002. 98 Lost Boys came to San Diego and their life stories led to media coverage of their heroic marches across Sudan to Ethiopia and then back south to Kenya and finally to the refugee camp at Kakuma. The Refugee Network served many of these Lost Boys through the delivery of furniture and household goods. A further important element of the Network’s services has been the development of tutoring programs whose aim is make children more successful in their school work, especially those handicapped by lack of English as they enter middle and high schools in San Diego.
