Ansche Chesed and Supporting Asylum Seekers

Wed, January 29 at 7:00 pm9:00 pm

In December, AC members Barbara Schatz and Charlie Davidson, along with Rabbi Yael Hammerman, had the eye-opening experience of visiting the San Diego / Tijuana border with HIAS to bear witness to the experience of those seeking asylum in the US. They will share reflections and photos from their visit.

We will be joined by local leaders who have helped shape the local response to the huge numbers of asylum seekers in New York in recent years, including:

They will share with us what they have been doing and ways that we as Ansche Chesed members, and others, can get involved to help these newcomers to New York.

Registration encouraged, walk-ins welcome.
