  • Providing immersion and educational opportunities in the city of Tijuana, Mexico
  • Enabling participants to enhance their political, socio-economic, and cultural views of the forces that are shaping the lives of many countries and families throughout the continent
  • Reflecting theologically on the constant migratory exchanges between both sides of the border.

Center for Education and Social Transformation
Centro Romero is one of the Centers for Education and Social Transformation, a concept created at the Justice and Witness Ministries of the United Church of Christ under the leadership of Rev. Linda Jaramillo in 2005. The Daniel F. Romero Center for Border Ministries was envisioned by Southern California- Nevada Conference Minister Rev. Dan Romero, after whom the center is named. Centro Romero was developed in partnership with the Southern California-Nevada Conference of the United Church of Christ and Justice and Witness Ministries of the United Church of Christ. The Romero Center is located in San Ysidro, California, less than 20 minutes from the Mexican border city of Tijuana. LEARN MORE

*NEW* PSR Immersion Experience

PSR Immersion

During the January Intersession, PSR students took a challenging 11-day immersion course on the San Ysidro/Tijuana border. The course requires examining environmental conditions, learning about the history of U.S./Mexico border relations, and speaking with people living and working in this limnal space between poverty and abundance, danger and safety, exploitation and injustice. These are first-person reflections from PSR students who participated in this life-changing learning experience. LEARN MORE
