These Amerasians have special ties to the United States because their fathers were Americans serving in Vietnam before 1976. These ties caused them to suffer hardships and discrimination in Vietnam. In an earlier report (GAO/PEMD-94-10R), GAO discussed the process under which eligible Amerasians and their families participate in the resettlement program in Vietnam, receive language instruction and cultural orientation in the Philippines, and are finally resettled in the United States. This report focuses on the outcomes for Amerasians and their families after resettlement has taken place, particularly with regard to education, employment, housing, and health care. GAO also examines factors that have helped or harmed the successful resettlement of Amerasians. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-PEMD-94-15/html/GAOREPORTS-PEMD-94-15.htm GAO/PEMD-94-15 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-PEMD-94-15 Letter Report GAO/PEMD-94-15; Vietnamese Amerasian Resettlement: Education, Employment, and Family Outcomes in the United States; Immigration or emigration Refugees Aid to refugees Welfare services Compensatory education Vocational education Housing programs Health care services Attrition rates Employment or training programs Vietnam Volume 101 Page 1329-183 101 Stat. 1329-183 Public Law 100-202
