Presideo

The Center for Faith-Based Asylum at World Relief

Everyone deserves the right to practice their faith freely.

Sadly, millions worldwide face religious persecution, forcing many to flee their home countries in search of safety. Asylum is a legal protection the U.S. extends to individuals fleeing persecution. Many asylum seekers reach the U.S. pursuing religious freedom but cannot navigate the complex legal system nor afford legal assistance to file an asylum application.
