Discover the inspiring work of Socorro JurΓdico Humanitario (SJH), a legal aid NGO from El Salvador, in an engaging talk with guest speakers Ingryd Escobar and Oscar Rosales. Formed in response to El Salvadorβs 2022 suspension of civil rights, SJH offers free legal and humanitarian aid to individuals impacted by the state of emergency, providing critical support to over 75,000 people currently imprisoned without charges. Escobar and Rosales will share how SJHβs mission resonates with Detroit Mercyβs commitment to justice and human rights, as they advocate for those in need and push for international action.
The College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (CHASS) invites you to join this important discussion and gain insight into the global fight for human rights, directly reflecting Detroit Mercy’s mission to foster community and serve the marginalized.
