What it says it does
TO ASSIST PEOPLE WHO ARE PERSECUTED AND WHOSE HUMAN RIGHTS ARE BEING VIOLATED.DUE TO THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF OUR MISSION, WE SOLICIT DIRECTLY TO INDIVIDUALS VERSUS LARGE EVENTS OR CROWDS. WE RELY ON WORD OF MOUTH AS WELL AS PERSONAL REFERRALS. R&R REPRESENTS THE CITIZENS' FAMILIES AND FRIENDS WHO HAVE A MEMBER WHO IS WRONGFULLY IMPRISONED FOR EITHER RELIGIOUS OR POLITICAL REASONS. RELIGIOUS FREEDOM HAS BEEN AN UNDERREPRESENTED TOPIC IN OUR GOVERNMENT AND SOCIETY. R&R STRIVES TO BRING THESE IMPORTANT ISSUES TO THE FOREFRONT BY USING QUIET DIPLOMACY TO HELP THESE FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS TO GAIN FREEDOM AFTER BEING IMPRISONED. WE TAKE ON AS MANY CASES AS WE ARE ABLE TO, BASED ON THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCCESS AND STRONG CONTACTS WITHIN THAT PARTICULAR AREA OR SUBJECT MATTER. WE WILL WORK EACH CASE ON A CONTINUAL BASIS UNTIL THERE IS A RESOLUTION.
