A Florida Gulf Coast University class is organizing an education fair for undocumented workers in the East Fort Myers area this Sunday.

The fair will include food, guest speakers, and booths from various public service centers, said Honey Archey, a student of the Foundations of Civic Engagement class.

Participants in the fair will be representatives from Lee County Sheriff, Lee County School Board, Lee Memorial Health Systems and a speaker from one of the social service centers.

The goal of the fair is to educate undocumented workers on what their rights are in issues such as health care, law enforcement, and education. We will provide direction to where they can go for help and information.
