Awareness & Practical Guidance for Working with Unaccompanied Minors with Disabilities

This training focuses on increasing awareness and providing practical tips and guidance for advocates. Shalom Hernandez, CILA's Social Work Fellow, offers her lived experience, Laura Egan, CILA's Managing Attorney for Pro Bono & Communications, offers tips from her experience working with clients with various disabilities in both disability law and immigration law, and Marissa Barrera, CILA's Managing Social Worker, offers CILA resources to assist clients in finding community and advocate for themselves in medical settings. Our hope is that advocates leave the training feeling more empowered to advocate for their clients and learn additional ideas and tools to help empower their clients as well.
