Refugee Arrivals Data System (RADS) is administrative data received by Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) from its grantees (e.g., state government agencies, resettlement agencies) as part of its annual data collection process. The RADS data includes program information about individuals who received assistance from ORR.
Data elements received include year of admission to/time in the U.S., City and State of initial placement, and demographic details.
Use of this data requires a project proposal and approval from HHS.
