The series will host two events this spring with practitioners working on the Border and in Mexico and Latin America.

He served as Assistant Secretary for Policy & International Affairs and Chief Diplomatic Officer in the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), as Vice President of INTERPOL for the Americas Region, and as Commissioner of US Customs and Border Protection.
The next event will be on April 13 at 6:00 p.m., when Ms. Ginger Jacobs, an immigration attorney from San Diego and national speaker on the topic, will join us for her talk “Myth-Busting around Immigration and Asylum.”
