Event Description
Join IRIS- Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services as we team up with the Yale Rep to celebrate New Haven's immigrants achieving U.S. citizenship. You are invited to the Saturday, October 6th performance of American Night: The Ballad of Juan José. Described by the LA Times as "fast-paced, gleeful, and sly," American Night is a new play by writer and performer Richard Montoya.
The play follows a young man whose obsession to pass his citizenship exam "takes him on a fantastical odyssey through U.S. history... American Night: The Ballad of Juan José is a provocative, irreverent, and hilarious mix of past and present, stereotype and truth." (from the Yale Rep website: http://www.yalerep.org/on_stage/2012-13/american.html.)
The Yale Rep has provided IRIS a group discount ticket rate. You can purchase tickets at the greatly reduced rate of $40; half of which is a tax-deductible donation to support IRIS's naturalization services for New Haven immigrants.
IRIS provides citizenship exam preparation, legal assistance for naturalization applications, and voter registration at naturalization ceremonies. Learn more about IRIS's work with immigrants at the Post-Show Conversation after the performance.
Come out and enjoy American Night with IRIS on October 6th!

New Report: A Close Look at the Reality of Community Violence Interrupters
Dr. Kathryn Bocanegra and Dr. Shani Buggs, eminent researchers and experts on the work of community violence intervention, have published, together with LISC, Supporting the Frontline Through Community Healing: Advancing Science on Violence Intervention Outreach and Trauma Exposure. The study, focused on safety efforts in Kansas City, MO, is a deeply researched and compassionate look at the trauma CVI workers confront every day and how to support the field so that practitioners “are protected from the same harms they work to prevent.”“A Gateway for Possibilities”: Resident Leadership and Community Ownership
LISC's Institute for Community Power has published a new Spotlight examining three leadership development programs designed and implemented by LISC and local partners for distinct communities in different parts of the country: Training the Trainers (T4T) in Houston; the Newark Resident Leadership Academy (NRLA); and Community Connectors in Philadelphia. Each group has leveraged the leadership program to inform and strengthen their work and, in turn, to serve their communities more effectively.Mobile Home Residents in Washington State Are Calling the Shots After Buying Their Park
Manufactured housing, which 20 million Americans call home, is one of the few affordable housing options in the United States. The residents of two Washington State mobile home communities recently succeeded in purchasing their parks with help from ROC USA and over $2 million in financing from Rural LISC. As a result, they have been able to stabilize their housing costs, upgrade their communities and remain in the places they love.
