The ABA Children’s Immigration Law Academy (CILA) invite you to a webinar presentation. As advocates help youth navigate the legal immigration process, it is important to have an understanding of the areas where children migrate from and reasons for migration. Most children arriving unaccompanied migrate to the United States from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. This webinar explores the political and cultural context of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. CILA has invited a dynamic panel of speakers and experts to discuss the issues.

Speakers:
Dr. Michael E. Allison, PhD, Professor and Chair of the Department of Political Science, The University of Scranton

Adriana Beltrán, MIPP, Director for Citizen Security, Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA)

Dr. Stephanie L. Canizales, PhD, Assistant Professor of Sociology, University of California at Merced

Anna Aziza Grewe, MSW, Coordinator, Youth and Migration, Colectivo Vida Digna

Dr. Suyapa Portillo Villeda, PhD, Associate Professor of Chicano/a-Latino/a Transnational Studies, Pitzer College
