DACA and The Effects on API Communities: What Social Workers Need to Know
Thanks to those of you who were able to join us this past Friday evening at the Marriott San Mateo SFO Airport Hotel for a very interesting presentation by staff from Chinese for Affirmative Action on "DACA and the Effects on API Communities: What Social Workers Need to Know".
The presenters, Hong Mei Pang and Annette Wong, brought a great deal of resources to share. The Council is very grateful to them for sharing their time and expertise with us.
Please go to Chinese for Affirmative Action's website www.caasf.org for more information about the services they provide. The San Francisco Immigrant Legal and Education Network (www.sfilen.org) also provides some great resources. Please check them out when you have a chance.

Legal and Social Impacts of the Immigration Ban
On May 6, 2017, The API Social Work Council invited immigration attorney, Nancy Hing Wong, from Asian Pacific Islander Legal Outreach to speak on the "Legal and Social Impacts of the Immigration Ban." Ms. Wong gave a very informative presentation as well as made available a number of useful resources. Council co-chair, Richell Jose, and co-founding member, Nancy Lim-Yee, presented information about the API Social Work Council during the meeting. Our Council member, Jenny Kwak, talked briefly about her article "Standing Up", which recently appeared in NASW-CA News.
