Help the Heroes: A Panel Discussion with Local Immigrant Support Organizations

Sunday, July 20, 2:00pm, at TBI

Hear from three very important local organizations that support our immigrant, refugee, and Latino/Latina communities. Representatives from the Oregon Community Asylum Network, the Refugee and Immigrant Services Program, and Plaza de Nuestra Comunidad, will talk with us about the work they are doing, the current challenges, and, importantly, how we can help.

Unfounded accusations and attacks, sudden unwarranted deportations of people who are here legally, and hateful rhetoric have reached new “depths” under the current administration. We are called on to help. Plan to attend this discussion to learn how.

TBI supports the efforts of HCAO (Health Care for All Oregon)

HCAO provides the education and advocacy that will be needed for a publicly funded healthcare system to pass the Oregon legislature.  Other faith groups, unions, and businesses have already signed on as endorsers—AFSCME public sector union locals, AFL-CIO locals, Oregon Nurses, many, many churches; over 130 organizations and businesses at last count. TBI is now a member of the Faith Caucus supporting this effort!
