Description

In the early spring of 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine and started a war. Thousands of Ukrainians fled their homes in search of safety. Most remain displaced, unsure of when they can go home, and if home will even be there when they return.

On today's episode, we are joined by Vita Zeltser, a Ukrainian-born, U.S.-licensed data privacy lawyer. Vita tells us about her journey to Poland to assist refugees, using her legal skills to help those resettling in the U.S., and the stories of those she's met along the way.
