Jennifer Koh, Sabrina Rivera and Student Nathalie Cedeno Recognized by Santa Ana City Council

On September 19, Professors Jennifer Koh and Sabrina Rivera, and Western State student Nathalie Cedeno, were recognized by the Santa Ana City Council for their efforts – along with a coalition of other attorneys and advocates – to support the City’s efforts to establish an Immigration Legal Defense Fund.  Earlier this year, the Santa Ana City Council allocated $65,000 towards the creation of a legal defense fund that will support efforts to provide legal services to Santa Ana residents facing deportation, the first of its kind in Orange County.  The recognition was presented at the city council meeting by Councilmember Vincent Sarmiento.
