Garden Justice Legal Initiative (GJLI)

Update

HIAS/Bhutanese Gardens

Amy Laura Cahn, director of our Garden Justice Legal Initiative, has been advising HIAS Pennsylvania and their Butanese clients on how to obtain land in Northeast Philadelphia since last year. She connected HIAS to Partners for Sacred Places, who  has helped them negotiate with a faith based partner. There are seven refugee families that will be gardening to start.
