The Tennessee Office for Refugees (TOR) aims to promote growth, integration, and self-sufficiency by providing financial, technical, and professional support to refugees and ORR-eligible populations and the agencies serving them throughout the State of Tennessee.
TOR has helped thousands of displaced persons feel at home in Tennessee. As these new arrivals begin to rebuild their lives here in our state, they have the same goals as any other Tennessean: creating a home, enjoying life, and achieving dreams. The circumstances that led them to leave their home country may differ from person to person, but all need a new place to start again.
