More about the listening sessions:
The goal of the listening session is to get input from the immigrant community
about barriers they may have that prevent them from obtaining services through the county, such as:
* Obtaining assistance related to employment issues or benefits
* Obtaining social services including health benefits and Medical Assistance
* Requesting assistance from the Dane County Sheriff’s Department.

Subject: ITF Listening Session/Meeting Tonight – CANCELLEDHello,
The Immigration Task Force intended to hold its first listening session this evening at Sennett Middle School. Unfortunately, the meeting was not properly noticed and no agenda was created. Therefore, it is anticipated that the next listening session (and meeting) scheduled for February 10th will take place as planned.
We apologize for the inconvenience. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Thanks.
