Fighting for Families

The family separation crisis at the border happened quickly and
lawyers played a key role in helping families. Efren Olivares,
director of the Racial and Economic Justice Section for the Texas
Civil Rights Project ("TCRP"), along with a dedicated team, 
spent every day in court meeting and working with families. In
this episode, we discuss what it is like to be at the center of a
crisis, how lawyers have the power to offer solutions, how Efren
decided to get involved and how TCRP is continuing to work to
reunite families.
