Our Patchwork team is growing! Welcome Rita Lwin, our new Program Officer!

 

Lwin was born in Myanmar (Burma) and belongs to the Kayan ethnic group from the Karenni State. While living in Bangkok, Thailand, she developed a passion for helping refugee and immigrant populations while working with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) for six years, serving refugees from Burma as a case manager.

 

Lwin arrived in the United States in 2008 as a student and was later granted asylum. Since 2009, Lwin has worked closely with Burma communities in Indiana and as a refugee case manager.

 

At Patchwork Indy, Lwin continues her case management work with Burma communities and all refugees and private sponsor groups we serve.
