This Good Word With Steve Wiens
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
Karen Gonzalez is an advocate and an ally for immigrants and refugees. She works with World Relief, a nonprofit which helps immigrants and refugees navigate their way through the difficult waters of living in the United States.
We talked all about the challenges that immigrants and refugees face these days in the U.S., we talked about the recent family separation crisis facing immigrants, and we talked about ways that we can get involved to promote change.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
Karen's new book is coming out next spring, so make sure to keep an eye out for it. I can't wait to read it.
Enjoy!
