Families Belong Together – Huntington Rally
June 30, 2018 @ 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM
More than 2,300 immigrant children have been separated from their families at the border and the increasing number of separated and detained children has prompted a national backlash. NASW and NASW-NYS opposed the administration’s practice of separating children from migrant and asylum-seeking families entering the United States and shared concerns that President Trump’s executive order does nothing to address what will happen to the 2,300 children who have already been separated and put in custody.
The NASW-NYS Suffolk Division is joining allies from across the country this Saturday, June 30th, at the Families Belong Together – Huntington Rally for a national protest and mobilization to combat family separation and detention caused by the Trump administration’s “zero-tolerance policy.”
What: Families Belong Together – Huntington Rally
When: Saturday, June 30, at 12:30 p.m.
Where:49 West Jericho Turnpike, Huntington Station
We will be lining the sidewalks at all four corners at the intersection of Jericho Turnpike and Route 110 in Huntington Station and hope to extend it for blocks.
Any members or social workers interested in meeting up and rallying together with the NASW-NYS Chapter, please contact NASW-NYS member Sabrina Spotorno (see highlighted contact below):
