Abstract
This study analyzes three major French NGOs in three distinct migrant-receiving cities in France within the past six to seven years. These organizations have historically welcomed immigrant and refugee populations as well as other marginalized groups. First, this research explores the demographics of refugees to understand the manner in which different groups assimilate and how the local community receives them. Secondly, this research targets the most important NGOs services that serve as a foundation for French citizenship which include: cultural activities, housing, French language courses, culture and civil society courses, employment opportunities, and resource support. Lastly, this research serves to gain insight into the influence that NGOs have on public opinion through engaging the local community with refugees, developing projects that spread awareness about refugee and migrant issues, and crafting memorandums and bills regarding refugee and migrant reforms.
