Immigrants Wake America is back with a new season titled “Hidden Heroes in a Small Town”. During this season we will get to know the staff and case workers at the American Civic Association, a non-profit organization in Binghamton, New York, whose mission is to help refugees and immigrants start a new life while preserving their ethnic and cultural diversity. This six-episode installment showcases the amazing work and journeys of migration of the people “behind the scenes”.
Our guest in this episode is Laila Hernandez, Deputy Director of the American Civic Association in Binghamton NY. Laila shares her journey as a remarkable woman wearing many hats - as an immigration caseworker accredited by the department of justice, as the chief mentor for her busy staff, as an educator for student interns, as a mother homeschooling her children, and more.
