FTH nonprofits: Border Angels
This year, FTH is dedicating the fight to twelve incredible organizations that work ceaselessly to protect marginalized and vulnerable communities. This is one of the last in a series of in-depth posts that gives some insight into what each of these organizations do and how a donation can help their cause.
Border Angels: providing resources for survival and social support to refugees and immigrants at the US/Mexico border.
Since the start of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 1994, there has been a steady increase in the militarisation of the US-Mexico border, primarily due to the implementation of Operation Gatekeeper. Years of devastating economic and immigration policies have created a situation where thousands of people from Mexico and Latin America risk their lives each year attempting to cross into United States the US in the hope of finding a better life.(1) In the first 15 years since the inception of Operation Gatekeeper in 1994, an estimated 5,000 people lost their lives during the journey across the US-Mexico border,(1) and as of this year, Border Angels estimates that 10,000 people have died due to extreme weather, lack of food and water, and the overall perilous nature of the trip. (2) The US Border Patrol reported 294 migrant deaths in the southwest border sectors during the 2017 fiscal year, a drop from the 329 deaths listed in 2016.(3) However, the rate of migrant fatalities rose as a percentage of total people apprehended while trying to cross into the US.(4)
Trump has been targeting undocumented immigrants, and immigration from Mexico specifically, with the repeal of DACA and his promise to build a wall on the US-Mexico border which he claimed would be paid for by Mexico (he later tweeted that the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement would pay for it instead, and the ongoing US government shutdown is a result of Trump refusing to sign a Senate-approved stopgap spending bill on 20 December 2018 because it didn’t include money for additions to the aforementioned wall).(5) His derogatory and discriminatory rhetoric towards immigrants and policy moves can be read about in more depth in our previous non-profit introduction for RAICES.
Border Angels (BA) was founded in 1986 by Enrique Morones, who was inspired after taking a trip with members of his church to canyons in San Diego County where migrant families were living. BA is an all volunteer, non profit organisation that advocates for human rights, humane immigration reform, and social justice with a focus on issues related to the US-Mexican border. BA has a 3-pronged approach in its mission to reduce the number of fatalities occurring along the Californian US-Mexico border:
preventing unnecessary deaths through the placement of life saving water stations in the desert, maintaining border rescue stations
engaging in community education and awareness programmes that include guided trips to the border to learn about the history of US-Mexico border policy and experience the border fence firsthand to help dispel the myths surrounding immigration in the United States.
providing free immigration services, legal assistance and consultations in Spanish and English every Tuesday night at the Sherman Heights Community Center to serve San Diego County’s immigrant population.(6)
To this day, BA helps migrants survive their time in the desert through water drops during the summer, and supplying warm clothing, food and water during winter. (6) Exposure to the elements (including heat stroke, dehydration, and hyperthermia) climbed to be the leading cause of crossing deaths in the Southwest Border Sector between 1985-1998, highlighting BA’s importance to improving immigrants’ health during their crossings.(2)
Border Angels is a tax deductible 501(c)3 charitable organisation.

Stark Racial Disparities Persist in Vaccinations, State-Level CDC Data Shows
Black Americans’ covid-19 vaccination rates are still lagging months into the nation’s campaign, while Hispanics are closing the gap and Native Americans show the highest rates overall, according to federal data obtained by KHN.
Tumblr media
This story also ran on CNN. It can be republished for free.
The data, provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in response to a public records request, gives a sweeping national look at the race and ethnicity of vaccinated people on a state-by-state basis. Yet nearly half of those vaccination records are missing race or ethnicity information.
KHN’s analysis shows that only 22% of Black Americans have gotten a shot, and Black rates still trail those of whites in almost every state. 
Targeted efforts have raised vaccination rates among other minority groups. Hispanics in eight states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico are now vaccinated at higher rates than non-Hispanic whites. Yet 29% of Hispanics are vaccinated nationally, compared with 33% of whites.
While 45% of Native Americans have received at least one dose, stark differences exist depending on where they live. And Asian vaccination rates are high in most states, with 41% getting a shot.
The analysis underscores how vaccine disparities have improved as availability has opened up and Biden administration officials have attempted to prioritize equitable distribution. Still, gaps persist even as minority groups have suffered much higher mortality rates from the pandemic than whites and are at risk of infection as states move to reopen and lift mask mandates.
Despite these lingering gaps, the CDC said last week that those who are fully vaccinated don’t need to wear masks in most indoor and outdoor settings or physically distance. Only 38% of Americans are fully vaccinated. 
“Every day we do not reach a person or a community is a day in which there is a preventable covid case that happens and a preventable covid death in these communities,” said Dr. Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, chair of the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California-San Francisco.
<![CDATA[ window.addEventListener('message', function(event) { if (typeof event.data['datawrapper-height'] !== 'undefined') { var iframes = document.querySelectorAll('iframe'); for (var chartId in event.data['datawrapper-height']) { for (var i=0; i
KHN requested race and ethnicity data from the CDC on people who have received at least one dose of a covid vaccine since mid-December for all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The data covers shots as of May 14 given to 155 million people that were administered through federally run programs and federal agencies as well as by state and local authorities.
Eight states — Alabama, California, Michigan, Minnesota, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont and Wyoming — either refuse to provide race and ethnicity details to the CDC or are missing that information for more than 60% of people vaccinated. Those states are excluded from the KHN analysis, though the CDC includes all but Texas in its published national rates.
Some states display race and ethnicity for vaccine recipients separately, making it difficult to compare rates for Hispanics to non-Hispanic whites, for example. But the CDC data allows for direct comparisons. It reports numbers for Hispanics, who can be of any race or combination of races, as well as numbers for non-Hispanic people of single-race or multiracial categories.
The data for Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders is unreliable, making it difficult to draw conclusions on the vaccination rate in that population.
Dr. Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association, wasn’t surprised that Black Americans’ vaccination rates were still lagging, citing a complex combination of access issues, hesitancy and structural inequity.
Benjamin pointed to the early challenges in securing an appointment online and the initial placement of vaccination sites — which he noted the Biden administration had worked to improve.
“We’re going to be judged whether or not we did it equitably at the end of the day,” he said. “Right now, I still think we’re failing.”
Dr. Utibe Essien, a health equity researcher and assistant professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, stressed that targeted outreach must involve multiple institutions in a community.
“It’s not just the Black doctor, it’s not just the barber, it’s not just the pastor, kind of these traditional folks who have been the big messengers. We have to be broad,” he said. “It’s investing in folks who know the neighborhood, the small-store owner who gets to see all the 12- to 15-year-old kids come through the store getting snacks before they head off to school.”
Why Native Americans Lead in Vaccinations
Nationally, Native Americans and Alaska Natives have been vaccinated at significantly higher rates than other groups. Tribes administered doses quickly, prioritizing elders with culturally important knowledge, said Meredith Raimondi, director of congressional relations and public policy for the National Council of Urban Indian Health. The rollout was imbued with urgency: Native Americans have died of covid at more than double the rate of white Americans, according to the latest CDC data.
Native vaccination rates are higher than white rates in 28 states, including New Mexico, Arizona and Alaska, where many receive care from tribal health centers and the Indian Health Service. In states such as South Carolina and Tennessee, where IHS access is more limited and Native residents are more likely to live in urban areas, vaccination rates are far lower than for white residents.
Groups in those areas reported problems finding health care providers to administer shots. Tribal organizations compiled lists of retired nurses to tap for clinics. At one point, staffers from an Oklahoma City clinic for Native Americans offered to fly to Washington, D.C., to help vaccinate Indigenous people living around the nation’s capital, Raimondi said.
“It became an issue of, ‘Well, we could get you the vaccine, but we don’t know who is going to administer them,’” Raimondi said.
The council and Native American Lifelines, a nonprofit providing health services, partnered with the University of Maryland-Baltimore for a vaccination site exclusively for Native Americans living in Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. It launched in April.
While the vaccination rates for Native Americans surpass those of whites in some states due in part to IHS, that infrastructure does not exist for Black Americans, said Rhonda BeLue, the department chair of health management policy at Saint Louis University.
At the beginning of the pandemic, people were shocked by how much more likely Black Americans were to die from covid, she said.
“However, the same structural inequities that caused that disproportionate mortality in covid are the same structural inequities that predated covid and caused disproportionate burdens of morbidity and mortality,” she said. “This isn’t new.”
Easing Fears in Hispanic Communities
Some states are reporting higher vaccination rates among Hispanics than white and Black residents, which Bibbins-Domingo said fits with surveys showing high enthusiasm for vaccination among Hispanics. It also indicates that some of the reported barriers may have been addressed more effectively in those states, she said.
Paul Berry, chair of the Virginia Latino Advisory Board, partly attributes Virginia’s success to targeted outreach efforts. The state and certain counties also increased Spanish-language resources to boost sign-ups.
Connecting with every community cannot be an afterthought, said Diego Abente, president and CEO of St. Louis’ Casa de Salud, a health care provider focused on immigrant communities. Community buy-in, effective social media use and language programming from the start have been essential, he said. Hispanics have a higher vaccination rate than whites in Missouri.
But nationally, a dearth of transportation options, an inability to take off from work to get a vaccine, and concerns about documentation and privacy have dampened uptake among Hispanics, according to experts.
“To me it’s more about access to health care,” Berry said. “If you don’t live close to health care, you’re just going to shrug it off immediately. ‘I can’t get that vaccination. I’m going to miss work.’”
To reduce fear among Idaho agricultural workers that may be part of mixed-immigration status families, public health workers emphasized messaging that documentation wouldn’t be required, said Monica Schoch-Spana, a senior scholar at Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. She has helped lead its CommuniVax project seeking to boost uptake among Black, Hispanic and Indigenous communities.
It’s also important to engage trusted institutions to administer vaccines, Schoch-Spana said: “Is it a familiar place, does it feel safe, and is it easy to get to?”
Federal efforts have placed sites in underserved neighborhoods. About 60% of shots at the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s vaccination sites and at community health centers were given to people of color, federal health officials said this week.
Incomplete Data Collection
Race or ethnicity information is still missing for nearly 69 million vaccinated people — or 44% — in the CDC data, despite vows by federal officials to improve outdated systems to better inform their response.
CDC spokesperson Kate Fowlie said their efforts, including sharing strategies for capturing demographic data and reducing data gaps with state and local governments, have resulted in improvements in data collection. Officials are also planning to allow agencies to update previously submitted vaccine records. The true national rates by race or ethnicity group would each be higher with complete data. 
<![CDATA[ window.addEventListener('message', function(event) { if (typeof event.data['datawrapper-height'] !== 'undefined') { var iframes = document.querySelectorAll('iframe'); for (var chartId in event.data['datawrapper-height']) { for (var i=0; i
Unlike the federal government, North Carolina made it nearly impossible for providers to submit vaccine data without recording race and ethnicity. As a result, it has the most complete demographic data of any state.
Adding that step was not an easy sell — providers and other vaccinators were initially resistant, said Kody Kinsley, the chief deputy secretary for health at the North Carolina health department. But it has paid off in the state’s ability to target its response to populations getting left behind, he said.
Bibbins-Domingo said the federal government and states need to make collecting this vaccination data by race mandatory, because data drives the response to the pandemic.
“The feds know how to do this. They do it every 10 years for the census,” she said. “That we somehow cannot figure it out in public health data is quite simply unacceptable.”

What You Do First After A Car Mishap?

The angles of the cars at the time of the accident, the seating placement of the chauffeur as well as travelers, and also the instructions where the persons face differs in each and every single crash.

Sluggish driving: While drowsy driving is as dangerous as intoxicated driving, a drowsy vehicle driver may not be charged with wrongful death unless it is shown that she or he voluntary rested behind the wheel. There are some problems with the data: While the data plainly reveal a fad toward much safer metropolitan driving, they are manipulated in areas with strong public transportation. The truth, nevertheless, is that car mishap are very common, particularly on the hectic roads of St. Louis and its surrounding areas. However, many website traffic fatalities are an accident and are categorized as uncontrolled vehicular murder. Nevertheless, replacing lost wages, being able to manage medical costs as well as a correct funeral service are essential to moving ahead. Syracuse police state 51-year-old Jorge Jimenez was a passenger in a black Dodge Charger with three others when they evidently lost control on a patch of ice and also struck a guardrail before midnight Wednesday on I-690 in Syracuse.
Jimenez was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Boeheim struck Jimenez with his GMC Acadia while trying to prevent the handicapped car, which was relaxing vertical on the darkened freeway. Yurisandy Jimenez Arrastre defined her dad-- a local of Cuba who lived in the USA for two decades-- as a husband who enjoyed to cook and also inform jokes. Arrastre informed the paper in Spanish. Jimenez's daughter told the Post-Standard he was with good friends acquiring cigarettes when he was eliminated. He satisfied his partner, his child and some good friends for a supper out after the video game and also was driving alone from the dining establishment, Fitzpatrick stated. Onondaga County District Attorney William Fitzpatrick claimed he has understood Boeheim for 40 years which the instructor does not consume alcohol. It is unclear if Boeheim will instructor the Orange versus No. 1 Duke on Saturday evening. SYRACUSE, N.Y.-- Longtime Syracuse basketball coach Jim Boeheim struck and also eliminated a man along an interstate freeway late Wednesday night as he tried to stay clear of striking the guy's disabled vehicle, police say. He also utilized his cellphone light to advise other drivers of the impaired cars and truck after the mishap, police said.
When two or more drivers are included in a car accident, cops are called to the scene as well as a crash record is filled in. When a vehicle driver operates a vehicle drunk of drugs and triggers an automobile crash that kills somebody, the driver can be charged with first-degree uncontrolled automobile homicide. Whether it warrants a spontaneous murder charge depends on the details scenarios of the instance. When a vehicle driver is at fault for creating fatality through negligent or irresponsible habits, the driver may be charged with vehicular wrongful death. It appears the approaching vehicle driver passed that vehicle and reduced back right into her lane as well hard, causing her vehicle to fishtail as well as blow up. As you try to maneuver right into the lane, he will certainly accelerate, causing a collision with your cars and truck. As long as you will discover stubborn people in denial on the level of their intoxication, well never ever see intoxicated driving with a manageable level. If you intend to send a video clip click on "Send Crashes Video" and see if the video clip is enabled to be retransmitted with public license and also describe the credits of the writers. Video clip web link: Automobile Accident Collection 2018 HD! A nine-year-old lady was killed and the chauffeur of the automobile she was riding in was jailed on uncertainty of drunken driving after a multi-car accident in North San Diego Area on I-5 Monday morning.
The believed intoxicated driver endured small injuries as well as was arrested on uncertainty of DUI. The driver of the Dodge suffered minor injuries and also the driver of the Honda was taken to a health center with modest injuries. An additional guy in the group experienced small injuries in the crash, police said. This consists of the problem of the road, the weather, the time of day, the precise place of the mishap, a summary of the other individuals and automobiles involved, and a summary of the accident itself. Those not putting on seat belts commonly had serious head and face injuries and also much more severe damages to their upper body and also reduced extremities (this consists of the hips, legs and feet). These mishaps in all likihood were reason in some means by individuals driving with there head up there back. The out of hand automobile then had a vehicle mishap with a Honda CRV, prior to a back end crash with a semi vehicle. Three various researches (Panjabi, Panjabi and Cholewicki and also Kaneoka) confirmed the system whereby the neck is wounded by a rear impact force. Various other writers have actually contested these figures and also some insurer sponsored research studies have actually located the threshold to be closer to 5 miles per hour. When insurer see that an individual is represented by a proficient attorney who is proactively associated with the prosecution of the situation, the chances of an effective result boost significantly.
Prior to assessing the damages to the product, make certain that all who were in the auto when the accident occurred remained in great problem. 33 74 percent of deaths in crashes entailing older people took place during the daytime. In 2004, of all wrongful deaths of the children ages 14 and younger, 21 percent of them was because of DUI vehicle mishaps. It does not assist that drunk-driving-- one of the top root causes of auto mishaps and also wrongful fatalities-- is one hundred percent avoidable. On top of being in discomfort, you additionally have the confusing and uneasy lawful problems, matters of insurance coverage, as well as economic problems, all impending. If several of the events involved did not have insurance coverage at the time of the automobile crash, you must look for an auto mishap lawyer right away. Complying with the accident, Brandy claims she interacted with Aboudiha's liked ones. In our experience, as auto crash lawyers in San Diego, it seems typically times the drunk driver is the one that endures a drunk-driving auto mishap, and also innocent people are the ones that are eliminated. Yet if you or an enjoyed one has been wounded in an automobile crash, you need to a person who can defend you, protect your legal rights as well as defend what is fair.

Story You May Have Missed
Tumblr media
Meet Gwen Osgard of Crawford High School
Today we’d like to introduce you to Gwen Osgard.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I started working in the San Diego Unified School District as an English teacher 20 years ago. I have taught all high school grade levels and classes from ESL (English as a second language) classes to Advanced Placement classes and it has always been more about the students than the subject matter. I have found great purpose in teaching the immigrant and refugee students of City Heights, the new arrivals.
In 2008, I was fortunate to be a designer and teacher of one of the first (of two) New Arrival Centers in San Diego. For eight years, working with newcomers filled my life with stories from the far reaches of the world; tragic stories of war and loss, but also wonderful stories of human life and love. My kids and their families had been through everything unimaginable, and yet their spirits were intact and their desire for learning was an affirmation of the human spirit.
Crawford High School is the most diverse high school on the West Coast and the New Arrival Center served an amazing mix of students of varied home countries, languages, religions, cultures and customs. The students became a cohort and supported each other through their high school experience. And now, a decade later, I am continuously blessed to see my students graduate from high school, from college and become contributing members of our society.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
The Crawford New Arrival Center was an incredibly challenging program to start. At the time, Crawford was divided into four small schools and we, the two teachers in the New Arrival Center, served students from each of the schools. Thus, enrollment, scheduling, taking attendance and assigning grades was awkward, to say the least. Furthermore, when the students were enrolled, most spoke no English at all, thus assessing the students’ skill levels and interest was next to impossible.
Opening the New Arrival Center in 2008 was full of unknowns, trial and error. It was a matter of taking a giant leap and knowing that we would do anything to figure out how to best serve our students. It was an exciting adventure in education and it stretched the hearts and minds of everyone involved. We scrambled for appropriate curriculum, relevant textbooks and lesson plans that met a classroom of students at varying levels of English language acquisition which were interesting to teens. It was a tall order, and it was incredibly gratifying to overcome obstacles and find solutions. Each community connection increased the success of our program. We explored San Diego with our students, took them on many college visits to make them familiar with their next steps, and hosted several interesting visitors, such as Joan Embery and Emmanuel Jal.
When we first opened, the Karen people had only been coming to the United States as refugees for about a year. We had no translators for the Karen language and the Karen Organization had not been formed yet. We had never even heard of Karen people and new practically nothing about Burma (Myanmar). We thought they were “Burmese” and that they spoke Burmese. It took the students acquiring enough English to explain to us why kids would write about Thailand (where they had lived in refugee camps) and that they were not Burmese- in fact, the Karen and other minority groups had been in a Civil War with the Burmese since the 1940’s and had endured torture, murder and the destruction of their homes and farms at the hands of the Burmese soldiers.
We learned that they were so small because they were usually about three years younger than their age on paper due to the fact that the Thai government gave the parents food rations according to the age of their children. In order to get enough rice, the parents would add a few years on to their children’s ages. We learned about other groups as well. We found out that students from Mexico and even from Vietnam may have interrupted formal education as well, even if they were not refugees. We learned about the religions of our students and adjusted our lessons during Ramadan (the Muslim month of fasting) because our kids were fasting and made sure to do our best to follow cultural rules and norms, such as sitting our girls in full hijabs (faces covered and only eyes showing) at all-girl tables and having a girl only room for lunch so that the girls could relax and enjoy their food together.
The kids taught each other about their customs, cultures and religions and formed an amazing cohort that still serves them as adults in college and other areas of life. I see my former students and they are still close with their multicultural friend groups, something that does not usually happen in high school, where students often clique together for safety and comfort rather than try to have a diverse range of friends. I have had students write letters to me telling me that the best thing about the New Arrival Center was learning so much about other people and making friends who turned out not to be so different from themselves.
Crawford High School – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
Prior to the creation of the New Arrival Center by Terry Walter, then Director of the Office of Language Acquisition, newcomers (immigrant and refugee students) would take English as a second language (ESL) classes and mainstream classes for the rest of the day. This led to students earning failing grades in their first year or two until they had acquired enough English to study the other subjects. This could be detrimental to their grade point averages and prevent them from ever graduating. The New Arrival Center was designed to give immigrant and refugee students a safe space in which to become proficient in English in one year in order to find success in the classes to follow.
They were comfortable enough to make mistakes because everyone was learning and there was none of the bullyings that is often experienced by international students who do not know how to speak English, dress differently, and lack things that American kids take for granted. It was a semi self-contained set of classrooms in which newcomers had the opportunity to build their English language skills all day while also studying math, science and American history in order to fill in the gaps in education. The majority of the students were SIFE (Students with Interrupted Formal Education) and they needed to study math from kindergarten to the ninth-grade level in order to be successful and to have the background in science and social studies. The students went to PE class, Advisory class and sometimes to art or computer classes. Those who arrived with math skills went to appropriate math classes.
The acquisition of English in preparation for high school classes was the focus of the New Arrival Centers; however, at Crawford High School, our work with the immigrant and refugee students went far beyond classroom instruction. We connected with the local organizations that rescue refugees, such as the International Rescue Committee, the Alliance for African Assistance, Jewish Family Services and Catholic Charities. We connected with the Karen Organization and the East African Cultural Center. My colleagues and I helped our students and their families to go to the doctors and dentists and to access other services that are so difficult to navigate without fluency in English.
Our New Arrival Center became a bustling hub of instruction, student activities and family support. By years two and three of this innovative endeavor, my teacher colleagues and I had developed a system wherein our older students who had mastered enough English and already successful in their high school classes would mentor the even new students to understanding American school culture and the surrounding City Heights community. We created clubs to support our students in extracurricular activities, such as the Karen Youth of San Diego Club (KYSCD), which continues to successfully share the Karen culture and provide support for Karen* students and International College Scholars, a club created to foster a college-going culture for our newcomer students.
I am very proud of the work we did in the New Arrival Center. We had a very high graduation rate, many of our students are in college, are college graduates or have finished other types of training programs and are working members of our community.
Councilmember Marti Emerald presented us with a proclamation on May 16th, 2014, signed by all councilmembers and the mayor declaring May 16th as Crawford High School New Arrival Center Day for the City of San Diego. She presented it to us during our Big Celebration, an end of the year cultural performance in which our students shared their songs and dances from their home countries and student-created skits about their experiences as new arrivals.
Over the years, there were several articles and television reports focused on the New Arrival Center, all positive. In two such stories, NBC’s Rory Devine interviewed me. On the second occasion, I was awarded the Inspiring Teacher of the Month award by NBC and the San Diego County of Education. Directly after that story, the New Arrival Centers were closed.
• The Karen are an ethnic minority of Burma (Myanmar) who has suffered an attempted genocide and fought in the longest civil war in the history of the world. Background information can be found at www.roadofresistance.com.
Other sources of info:
• Dr. Kristy Drake’s (former New Arrival Center teacher) finding that teachers within the New Arrival Center: “By and large, teachers defined themselves as much more than an instructor. They viewed themselves to be advocates for both their students and their program as well as a liaison between students and their families, school, and community resources” (p. 122).
• Dr. Drake’s research on the New Arrival Centers: Teacher Sensemaking of District Policy for Underschooled Immigrant Students
https://cloudfront.escholarship.org/dist/prd/content/qt03s7121g/qt03s7121g.pd f
What are your plans for the future? What are you looking forward to or planning for – any big changes?
Nonetheless, enrollment in charter schools continues to rise as more and more families and educators look for more engaging and personalized educational experiences. Since the closure of the New Arrival Centers, my colleagues and I have been exploring the steps necessary to open a specialized charter school that would encompass our researched support methods and advocacy. In the meantime, my colleague, Skye Cooke-Pinon and I have been working with the University of California San Diego (UCSD), implementing a tutoring program for refugee students with a focus on English language acquisition at the Sudanese Cultural Center.
I continue to be the advisor for the Karen Youth of San Diego Club and the Culture Club, which consists mainly of refugee students from Africa and Syria. I continue to work with the Karen Organization of San Diego and the International Rescue Committee as well as other community organizations. I engage in discussion and work concerning immigrant and refugee students and families whenever possible and consider this to be my life’s work. I hope to see the pendulum swing back to a focus on new arrival students, an at-risk population, and their specialized set of needs. *Reposted article from SDVoyager of June 28, 2018
