Join organizations from across Vermont and the Upper Valley Region for a free, public symposium on working with and advocating for asylum seekers and others seeking humanitarian immigration relief. Professionals and individuals with lived experience will discuss topics including the basics of humanitarian immigration law, the ways in which immigration status impacts access to services and benefits, practicing cultural humility and trauma-informed advocacy, language access, and know-your-rights for undocumented neighbors. The event will also include a collaborative workshop with other professionals and lay advocates serving asylum seekers, undocumented neighbors, and others seeking immigration relief on best case management practices.

Lunch will be served for in-person attendees. Registration is required.
