After the fall of Saigon in 1975, Vu Dang, the International Rescue Committee's regional director for Washington D.C., fled Vietnam with his family. His was one of thousands of families that did so. They arrived at California's Camp Pendleton and, Vu remembers, The IRC was there to really lead the largest refugee resettlement in U.S. history.
In this IRC Voices interview, Vu speaks about refugees as heroes and their journeys in search for something better.
