Colorado is home to thousands of refugees from all over the world who fled violence and persecution to seek safety and sanctuary in the United States. As these individuals and families put down roots in Colorado, they spark a multitude of regional economic impacts through their spending and through the wages they earn working in industries across the economy. The intent of this study is to understand the economic impact of the public support paid to refugees and their families as well as the economic impact of refugees' employment earnings over time., submitted to: Colorado Department of Human Services, Colorado Refugee Services Program ; submitted by: Dominic Modicamore., "May 20, 2018.", Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed March 2018)
