Immigration continues to be a hot button issue in the United States. Even though most of our population left their country of origin to find a better life here, we often target new arrivals. We have a narrative that they are a threat to our resources and our security. "Missing in Brooks County" illustrates the life-threatening circumstances people endure to come here and chronicles the story of forced deportation and the systems set up by our government to make entering the US at our southern border nearly impossible.

The film screening begins at 4:30 p.m. and will be followed by a panel discussion featuring:

  • Amy Ebbeson, LCSW, clinical director for Worcester Address Childhood Trauma
  • Alex Mooradian, Esq., immigration attorney
