Donna Duvin, MS

Ms. Duvin currently serves as an independent consultant, having formerly worked as a Sr. Advisor in Resettlement, Asylum, and Integration for the International Rescue Committee, an NGO addressing emergency and humanitarian concerns in over forty countries. Ms. Duvin previously served as Executive Director for the IRC’s offices in San Diego and across Texas, where she led operations serving over 8,000 refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants annually.

Ms. Duvin and her husband now call Asheville, NC home.
