Know Your Rights Presentation
with Alba Jaramillo, Esq.
from Immigration Law and Justice
Feb. 6th at 7pm
Friends,
Due to the overwhelming response to Monday's Know Your Rights information session, we are hosting a second Know Your Rights presentation on Thursday, February 6 from 7:00pm to 8:00pm.
We will hear from Alba Jaramillo, an immigration lawyer and the co-Executive Director of Immigration Law and Justice National Network. She will cover how churches and faith leaders can respond to the moment to help keep our immigrant communities safe, especially noting that sensitive locations are no longer respected by the federal government. There will be a short time for questions and answers.
This webinar will not be recorded or live-streamed, and attendance is by Registration only.

Please invite your church leaders and clergy colleagues to join us. Let us be in prayer for one another as we face these new and unsettling times. We are Stronger Together.
