This is CURE's brand new podcast ! The team wanted to tackle the topic of immigration on a national level but more importantly in our own backyards. We will be adding new personal stories over time as we want to honor the unique heart-wrenching and joyful journeys that have brought people to America since its inception. In these podcasts, we learned so much and it left us craving more. We laughed, we cried and we are ignited to dig deeper. We hope you are too!
We are grateful for the support of the whole CURE team and the work they gave to these episodes especially, Cristina Boado, Pam Brandman, Ann LoBue and Valeska Mancilla.
With each episode please explore guest Bios, Resources for learning and Actions. Thank You for listening! SPOTIFY LINK HERE
