As of my last update in October 2023, Hawaii has received a limited number of refugees compared to other states, primarily due to its geographic isolation and smaller population. The state's refugee resettlement program has focused on individuals from various countries, including those fleeing conflict and persecution. Specific numbers can vary year by year, and for the most accurate and current statistics, it's best to consult local or federal refugee resettlement agencies.
In many countries that take refugees, they have schemes where groups are brought to parts of the country and given the help they need to settle in their new country.
