Joey, Marina, and members of Grupo de Solidaridad joined Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network (WAISN) on February 7 for Immigrant & Refugee Advocacy Day in Olympia.

At January's Grupo de Solidaridad meeting, we were thrilled to welcome Caña Dulce - a multi-generational group who preserves the intangible cultural heritage of Costa Rica through folk dance!

A few people associated with our Grupo de Solidaridad (Solidarity Group) are looking for buddies to practice speaking English. No second language required, but Spanish can be helpful. Reach out to Marina if you are interested.
