In the summer of 1990 Donna Werner and her husband, Randy, were among the first volunteers with Boulder Action for Soviet Jewry (BASJ) to host a Russian immigrant family. The mission of BASJ was to provide human rights advocacy and resettlement for Soviet Jewish refugees, known as New Americans, who had faced antisemitism in Russia. Werner discusses BASJ's training program for volunteers, her efforts to develop relationships with family members, the breadth of cultural differences, and the often challenging process of helping integrate the family to life in the United States.
