Immigration Workshops
Immigration laws can be confusing, and they change frequently. To keep people informed, VIA offers workshops to explain new laws and help people understand how the changes might affect their lives. We also have workshops that explain how to do things, such as how to get ready to file an application and how to become a citizen. Our trained staff present workshops where they are needed, at schools, colleges, churches, and other organizations. If you have an idea for a workshop, please share it with us at contact@valleyimmigrant.org.
Community Presentations
VIA is a community resource for immigration information. We offer educational presentations to schools, churches, and other community groups. Working with you, we tailor our immigration presentations to the age, interests, and needs of your group. For more information on how we can help your institution or organization, please contact us at contact@valleyimmigrant.org.
