support adult education for immigrants

Nonformal group members, the current social climate has been laced with a great deal of anti-immigrant sentiment, which negatively impacts every ESL class in the country. Most of our students are now not only concerned but worried and anxious and naturally wonder about how their classes will be affected.

Perhaps there is a way for the adult education community to show support for our immigrant adult students. I know that LINCS cannot advocate anything that supports a candidate or political position, but maybe advocating for adult immigrant educational programs in a public forum would let people know how we feel.
