Historically, rural western Massachusetts has not received large numbers of non-European migrants. However, in recent years, an increasing number of migrants have begun settling in the area. Sociologist Phi Su will explore how advocates help new immigrants resettle in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. She will conduct participant observation and interviews for her study.
