CMS Kick Starts Parish Outreach
On September 7th CMS Outreach Assistant Rebecca Rybaltowski attended the Fidelis Community Resource Fair at Our Lady of Sorrows Parish in Corona. This successful event helped CMS reach out to many people who were interested in immigration matters and learn about the services that CMS provides. Several organizations that partner with CMS, including Faith in NY, NICE, Catholic Charities, New York Family Justice Center, Fidelis, Grameen VidaSana, and Queens Immigrants United were at the event and reached out to over 2,000 parishioners who attended the fair. This fair hosted by Fidelis Health Care helped to increase the scope of knowledge and access to valuable resources and services available to community members.
This fall CMS will be at different parishes across Queens and Brooklyn to provide information and consultations for our immigration, workers’ rights, and housing programs. Our goal is to increase the visibility of CMS and spread knowledge and information on the legal services we provide to the immigrant community.
