Listening to the Voices from Immigrant Communities November 13, 2024

FREE to the public. Continuing education (CE) credits are available for $25.

Presentation will focus on the value and ways that immigrants of different status use their voice and the purpose, process, and value of listening to immigrants to the United States. This discussion will be rooted in the healing traditions of voice/stories and in the processes of narrative authorship. The processes highlighted challenge unjust power differences and encourage collaboration across power and cultural differences. Two migrants (one DACA status, one Refugee status) will express their story and the role of using their voice as a path to healing and creating community in the U.S. Presenter and audience participation will be encouraged in a framework purposeful participation seeking to undo the consequences of unjust community practices relating to DACA and refugee practices in the U.S.
