Refugee Action Teams: How to Organize Your Community to Advocate on behalf of Refugees and Displaced People

This session will prepare participants on how to advocate on behalf of refugees and displaced people by presenting the issues that are having an impact on the work of Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) and those we accompany and serve. From starting a JRS Refugee Action Team to hosting awareness raising events, the team at JRS/USA and current Action Team Leaders will share ideas on how you can take action here in the U.S. for the global refugee community.
