The Jewish Federation of the Berkshires will host Berkshire Immigrant Center Director, Hilary Greene, who will speak about where the Center has been and where it is today.  The JFB founded the Berkshire Immigrant Center (formerly known as the New American Citizenship Coalition) in 1997 to assist Berkshire County immigrants, regardless of race and religious affiliation, to become American citizens.  JFB was responsible for the resettlement of the Russian community here in Pittsfield, prior to becoming The Berkshire Immigrant Center.  Cost $3.
