This paper presents the voices and reflections of two women who worked together in a community mental health project with Cambodian women. The first person narrative of Sokhany Sieng recollects her story of migration to the United States and her insights into the lives of refugee women in America. The discussion by Janice Thompson examines the ethics of feminist practice with refugee women and explores questions of colonialism in the use of feminist scholarship in multicultural work with refugee women
