Minors was established as a 501 (c) (3) Organization at Mankato, Minnesota, in 1984, originally as Minors In Need Of Resettlement, to provide family reunification and related assistance to orphaned and abandoned children in refugee camps in Thailand. Since 1990 we have worked to serve severely impoverished highland ethnic minority communities in Laos and Viet Nam. In the U.S., we have co-created Hmong language resources with schools in Minnesota since 2018.
