Students will critically reflect on and analyze the multiple dimensions of the present day immigrant situation they encounter from their placements in a variety of Immigration Centers in Fall River, Brockton, and Boston. The seminar will provide community-based learning and skill development so that students can study and experience directly the effects of government policy on the lives of individuals and families. The theological reflection and social analysis will assist students in the integration of the theoretical component studied in the courses.
