Name: Ruby Wexler

Social Justice Group: Refugees

Date of Fieldwork: December 3, 2017

Name of Organization: Arab-American Family Services Center

Person (people) with whom I met and their job titles: Hannah Mcintire

Type of Fieldwork: Tour of Organization

What I did:

We when to the AAFSC and interviewed Hannah Mcintire and a few other people who worked there. Then they gave us a tour of the organization while explaining what they do and what programs that have.

What I learned:

We learned that it can be hard to get a job or housing for refugees and this is especially hard if you don’t speak English.

What I learned about Social Justice “work” and/or Civil and Human rights “work” from this fieldwork:

That a lot of people care and want to help others but certain topics are ignored or thought to be not as important.
