If you wish to learn more about the causes behind the increased number of unaccompanied migrant children at the border, please view—and forward—this excellent video from Jesuit Refugee Service | USA. It consolidates a range of interrelated events and factors into an informative 4-minute history lesson: http://vimeo.com/102135765 You can also provide in-kind or monetary support to help immigrant families at the border through Catholic Community Services (CCS), highlighted in the recent KBI Alert from Executive Director Fr. Sean Carroll. For a wish list of needed items for migrant families in Tucson, see: http://tinyurl.com/qapgakv
To make a financial gift in support of the immigrant women and children served by CCS, you can do so here: http://www.ccs-soaz.org/Donations-to-Assist-Migrant-Women-and-Children.html
