SUMMARY:New East Bay Deportation Court -A Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:A large new Deportation Court recently opened in Concord\, nearly doubling the deportation capacity of the Bay Area.  What is a Deportation Court? What does this mean for our immigrant neighbors and what opportunities and challenges exist to protect and promote human rights? \nThere are a number of ways to support our immigrant neighbors as they journey through the process. Community members are needed to be court observers. Learn about “accompaniment” and how the community can participate. In addition\, attorneys are needed to help immigrants understand the legal process involved.  \nJoin us for an informative and in-depth discussion between moderator/panelist Ali Saidi\, Contra Costa County Public Defender and founder of Stand Together Contra Costa\, and panelist Reverend Deborah Lee\, Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity. \nThis is a follow-up to our September 2023 event\, What Is the Reality of Immigration? \nClick here to register. Information on how to access the Zoom webinar will be sent to your email address 24 hours before the program. \nCommunity Conversations are sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Diablo Valley\, the League of Women Voters of West Contra Costa County\, CCTV\, and the Contra Costa County Library.   \nThe webinar will have simultaneous Spanish and American Sign Language  interpretation. The Library will provide closed captioning for this event. The program will be recorded and uploaded to the LWVDV and Contra Costa Library’s YouTube channels after the event.  \nContact programs [at] lwvdv.org for more information.
