Why is your support vital?
Many are losing eligibility for crucial food and medical assistance programs. Federal funding is heavily diminished. Longterm family separation is increasing hardship for refugees with loved ones left stranded overseas. Discrimination and fear for safety are on the rise.
In a time when the barriers to essential care, basic needs and family reunification are being elevated, our neighbors need your support and solidarity. You can help to ensure that refugee and immigrant families have the resource accessibility, emergency support and tools required to overcome the challenges to rebuild their lives and thrive in our community.
