“How can we serve the immigrant populations in our cities? What questions should we be asking them? Who do we ask?” Dr. Ryan Pennington will address these questions by showing the complex network of immigrant communities in Amarillo. Understanding these communities will enable us to discuss how to build bridges into these communities and work collaboratively to identify unique solutions to our shared problems. The discussion will be illustrated by Amarillo College’s involvement in community needs assessments with the local Somali community.
