What is driving the recent rise in suicides among the Bhutanese refugee community here in Vermont? What can communities do to support refugees and other new community members as they adapt to new surroundings and work to build their lives here? What are some of the specific challenges refugees face living here in Vermont?

Come to the fireplace lounge at Ross Dining Hall to discuss these questions and more over lunch with Seven Days reporter Kymelya Sari. Sari has been covering refugee and new American communities here in Vermont, and her reporting has been featured in a number of news outlets.
