Isla Glaister, a citizen of Great Britain, has worked for non-profit organizations in and around Burma for the past five years.
These two individuals will be the guest speakers for the Immigration Matters Study group on Wednesday October 5 at 7:oo pm.
Their personal experience both in Burma and now in Massachusetts with these refugees is quite illuminating. Come and learn about your new neighbors.
