Fixing The Problem

And You Can Help

ReDressed’s mission is to help teen refugees adapt to their new multicultural environment. We gather new, lightly used, and donated dresses. A series of selection events will be held each year in Sacramento, giving teen refugees the opportunity to choose their perfect dress at no cost! Many refugees arrive to the United States after facing previous persecution. Teens are put into new schools, with different customs and cultural attire. While a high school dance may seem like a trivial event to some, being able to attend with peers and immerse oneself in a memorable high school experience may help a refugee’s ability to adapt to a new setting. Our mission is to provide a sense of comfort and stability to those teens who may be enduring a confusing and difficult time. Having access to a dress will hopefully ease the anxiety of affording one or attending a dance. A simple dress can redress the problem of alienation.
