Dear Friend,

Thank you so much for your support today! Together, we were able to raise $17,730. We are only $2,270 away from reaching our goal!

Your support is especially vital right now. With COVID-19, the children we serve are at an increased risk of isolation. The Child Advocates you provide are often the only consistent presence in their lives. The government continues to deport immigrants ([link removed]) , including vulnerable children, despite the undeniable health risks of travel. The Department of Justice refuses ([link removed]) to postpone court hearings, rushing unaccompanied and separated children through video hearings that deny them a fair chance to tell their stories. In addition, the government continues to unlawfully turn back ([link removed]) immigrant children seeking protection at the border, returning them to the very dangers they escaped.

Your contributions allow us to continue our policy work, advocating for a humane immigration system that sees children as children. You make it possible for children to safely reunite with their families and seek the protection they are legally entitled to. Your support ensures the most vulnerable children in government custody have an advocate in their corner.

Giving Tuesday Now donations are still open and every donation is matched dollar for dollar by a generous Young Center supporter! If you haven’t already done so, please consider ([link removed]) donating now ([link removed]) .

With gratitude,

AJ Albinak
