We Were Strangers Once: The Jewish Response to the Global Refugee Crisis

Friday October 30, 2015 08:00 PM EDT
Cost: Free

From the venue:

Guest Speaker: Riva Silverman, HIAS There are more refugees and displaced persons in the world today than at any time since World War II. Conflict and persecution is driving millions from their homes, leaving them stateless and vulnerable. Guided by Jewish values and history, HIAS works around the world to protect refugees who have been forced to flee their homelands because of who they are, including ethnic, religious and sexual minorities. HIAS helps refugees rebuild their lives and advocates for policies that protect their basic human rights.
