William, works with legislators in the region, represents Casa San Jose on local, state and national coalitions and works with the community to support legislation that provides more accessibility to the immigrant community here in Southwestern Pennsylvania.

William is driven by the fact that his mother is an immigrant from Cuba and that everyone should have the right to achieve the American dream and prosper in the United States regardless of their immigration status. He wants to ensure that the work he does creates a welcoming and safe environment for all residents regardless of their immigration status.

The catalytic power of this Summit in bringing together those who are devoting their lives to pushing back and working to confront, understand and work towards solutions around hate in our society is a noble and difficult task. The Summit not only energized those who attended but led to connecting the dots in a global network of those doing this work. The stories of the victims of hate were painful to witness but their courage in coming forward was inspirational. Those who attended left energized with the hope that by working together solutions can be forged.
