Host Sites Sought for Immigration Information Sessions

Advocates for immigrant families facing separation because of deportation are seeking sites to host information sessions for those who might be eligible for any relief announced by President Obama in the coming weeks.

If your congregation would be interested in hosting, the Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition (PICC) will help organize, provide resources and train volunteers. You may contact LAMPa or contact PICC directly.

Details of the anticipated announcement are unclear. Because any action may be limited in time frame for eligibility, and because unscrupulous actors posing as lawyers frequently take advantage of immigrants in times of uncertainty, it is crucial that affected families be connected to trustworthy sources of information and help as soon as possible. Please consider connecting your ministry to this need.
