7:30 PM - 9:00 PMZoom
With Safi Chalfin-Smith, Brazilian Workers Center, and Regina Corrao, First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church in Concord; Sponsored by Congregation Dorshei Tzedek, Myrtle Baptist Church, and others
The need for short-term housing of immigrant families is growing as more are threatened with the loss of shelter, jobs and housing. Come learn how members of faith communities can host a family in the way that makes the most sense for you; whether you can host a family for a week or months, any help you can provide is needed. The Brazilian Workers Center offers a range of supports to immigrant families and hosts, and the First Parish Church in Concord has been part of a successful community effort to host and support families.
