WE ARE: A Nation of Immigrants - New Haven 2018
The Participants

Sarafadeen

Nigeria

Portrait Location: 
New Haven Green A8

Current occupation: Parking lot attendant, Uber driver 

Reason for migration: I applied and was accepted for the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program.

Commentary: I came to the United States for work because there are not many jobs available in Nigeria.  Here I have found work and so I am applying for visas for my family to join me.  I miss my home – there is no place like home – but New Haven is now my second home and I am happy here.
