On January 26, 2017, Safe Passage Project took place in a pro bono fair following a program at the NYC Bar Association entitled “The Central American Refugee Crisis: Human Rights Challenges and needs in the United States and South of the U.S.-Mexico Border.” Director of Training, Claire R. Thomas, spoke on the panel, along with Luis Canales, a Honduran refugee who is now a law student at Villanova School of Law.
