UNC Asheville student group Hispanic Outreach for Learning Awareness (HOLA) will host a "Know Your Rights" workshop from 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday, March 30, at UNC Asheville's Alumni Hall, Highsmith University Union. The event is free and open to the public.

The workshop, which will be conducted in Spanish, will provide information to the Hispanic immigrant community about their rights and how to create emergency plans for their families. The workshop will also feature interactive discussions on immigrant rights prior to the development of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Founded in March 2003, ICE is the largest investigative branch of the Department of Homeland Security. It was created by combining the law enforcement arms of the former Immigration and Naturalization Service and the former U.S. Customs Service to more effectively enforce immigration and customs laws.
