Responding to the Border and a Call to Action
Belinda Hernandez-Arriaga
Friday, January 11, 2019, 7 PM
Odd Fellows Hall, 526 Main Street, Half Moon Bay
For the past six months Belinda has been actively working at the border with the Bay Area Border Relief and her University of San Francisco team of counseling students to support the children and their families coming out of ICE Detention center after their long journey to the United States.
She has been able to hear the stories of human rights violations so many have suffered in ICE Detention, sit with the children and hear their experiences and support families directly coming into the United States.
Her work is also centered on future political advocacy to highlight the many children that are still separated from their parents in our United States Immigration Detention system.
Open to the community - donations appreciated
