Background

About Jane Roche

I am Program Manager for the NASH Refugee Resettlement Initiative (RRI), where I help to mobilize public university systems to sponsor refugee students and families. Prior to this role, I have worn many “hats,” from supporting ECAR’s implementation fidelity plan to serving as a program associate for the University Alliance for Refugees and At-Risk Migrants. In addition to my role at NASH, I am a PhD candidate at the Rutgers University-Newark Division of Global Affairs, where I hope to advance knowledge about the role of State and non-State actors in the implementation of resettlement policies. In 2016, I received an MA in Peace and Conflict Studies with a concentration in peace psychology at the University of Tampere in Finland. In 2009, I received a BA from New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study. Dedicated to fostering inclusion for all populations, I am also a Fellow at CoHome, which is an inclusive housing organization for the neurodiverse community in Morristown, New Jersey.
