In The Solution


Jul 17, 2019

While the implications aren’t all immediately clear, our conversation with a public health sector leader will breakdown some of the key elements and outline ongoing advocacy and education campaigns that seek to support affected immigrant families and the organizations and institutions that provide direct services to those communities.

In this episode, I’m talking with Luvia Quinones, Health Policy Director with the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, or ICIRR. ICIRR, located in Chicago, Illinois, is dedicated to promoting the rights of immigrants and refugees to full and equal participation in the civic, cultural, social and political life of our diverse society, and works with many member organizations on various programs and campaigns to empower the immigrant community in Illinois.
