Supporting Immigrants in Our Community
Sunday, February 15 at noon in the Annex
Mary Jo Dudley will lead a discussion about immigrants in our community, what motivates them to migrate, what roles they play in our communities, and how they contribute to the NYS and US economy. Current immigration enforcement environment will be discussed as well as how families can plan to prevent family separation and how community members can provide support for immigrants in the region.

Her leadership has been recognized nationally – including by the White House, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and the Association of Public and LandGrant Universities. She has been interviewed by The New York Times, CBS News, ABC News, CNN, USA Today, ProPublica, Scientific
American, The Atlantic, National Public Radio, and many other media outlets.
