PROVIDER EDUCATION:

Policy and Legal Changes Affecting Afghan Families: What Service Providers Need to Know

Tuesday, June 30, 12 noon to 2 pm PDT / 3 pm to 5 pm EDT

Afghan families are navigating significant federal policy shifts and related legal impacts, including the USCIS adjudication pause, SIV processing delays, the suspension of USRAP, increased uncertainty around immigration pathways, and reductions in federal benefits affecting food, medical, and cash assistance. These changes are already affecting Afghan households across California and the U.S.

This AHLC session provides essential updates for providers working with Afghan families. Presenters will offer clear explanations of policies, practical guidance for supporting families, and insights into what to expect in the coming months.

Please join us on Tuesday, June 30, from 12 noon to 2 pm Pacific Time to hear national and state experts discuss federal policy, legal risks, overseas processing, and immigration-related developments affecting Afghan families.
