The Dane County Department of Human Services hosted its 5th annual Immigration Affairs Office Luncheon Dec. 12 at the Goodman Community Center’s BrassWorks Building on Madison’s East Side.
“It’s really truly an honor and a pleasure for us to have you all today,” said Fabiola Hamdan, the Dane County Department of Human Services Prevention & Early Intervention Community Programs Manager, in her welcome to the attendees. “This event is special for us in the Immigration Affairs team because we come together and recognize the dedication, resilience and friendship that unite us all.
“Today, more than ever, it is vital that we celebrate the collaboration, hard work, camaraderie, and compassion that make us stronger,” Hamdan added. “We are living through challenging days … days filled with emotions, sadness, disappointment and fear. I know it is not easy. Each of us carries a heavy weight, but as we gather here today, I want us to remember something very important: that there is always a tomorrow filled with hope, opportunity, and the power to keep fighting to keep making a difference.”…
