Join us for an interactive and engaging gathering designed to bring people together for honest conversations about how immigration has affected our lives and what is at stake for our community. The event starts promptly at 6:30, so arrive early! Doors open at 6.Born out of the <a href="https://braverangels.org/immigration/" title="https://braverangels.org/immigration/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Citizens Commission on Immigration</a>, the Community Forum on Immigration is a new 90-minute experience that creates space for reflection, storytelling, and connection across diverse experiences and viewpoints. Everyone is welcome to attend regardless of political identification.Together, we’ll explore personal stories and policy ideas through a conversation, inviting panelists Johnny Celestin, Daniel Di Martino, Casey Dalporto, Emilio Pons, Tania Mattos, and Larry Mead to share how immigration—past or present—has touched their lives, families, or communities, as well as share a policy that they support relating to immigration. All attendees will be invited to participate actively in a dialogue with each other.The stories from pre-selected panelists will start off the conversation, and will be gathered and possibly included in Braver Angels’ Report to the Nation. The purpose is to capture and elevate the voices of everyday Americans in the national conversation.This event is ideal for curious, concerned individuals who want to listen deeply and speak honestly about immigration in a respectful, community-based setting. Participants will have a better understanding of each other’s experiences and how they have shaped views on Immigration.Join us in building a better conversation—one story at a time.*Tickets are Free, Donations Welcome Use promo code BRAVER during registration to get a free ticket.
