The moving personal story of Diep Vuong, Co-founder and President of EMpower grantee partner Pacific Links Foundation, was featured in The Guardian’s ‘Refugees: How I got here’ article, “My family fled Vietnam for America. It took 17 years for us to be reunited.”

“From a youth who was stateless, I am now able to assist those who get stranded crossing borders.”

EMpower is very proud to partner with Diep Vuong and Pacific Links Foundation to fight cross-border trafficking of at-risk Vietnamese youth and to help ensure that young people have safe and healthy futures. Her story is now inspiring others and changing lives through Pacific Links' important work. Read her words here.
