Dear John, Please join me today on International Migrants Day in honoring the courage and contributions of migrants by supporting the National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC). NIJC ensures that individuals and families in our communities have access to legal information and representation. More than 122 million people worldwide are displaced by violence. As the U.S. has ramped up arrests and detention of immigrants and essentially closed its borders to those fleeing persecution, your support is more critical than ever. NIJC provides hope to immigrants and people seeking asylum, helping them exercise their rights and countering hateful rhetoric. In the face of unprecedented local and international attacks on migrants, NIJC provides: - Legal representation to reunite families and secure protection for those in crisis
- Know Your Rights education to empower people with tools to navigate a complex system
- Policy advocacy to protect immigrant rights and demand humane solutions
- Litigation support to hold the government accountable to U.S. and international laws
Immigrants are the fabric of our communities—they are entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, teachers, caregivers, neighbors, friends, and family. Instead of welcoming them, the current system presents inhumane obstacles and obstructs their rights. Join us in celebrating the courage and resiliency of migrants with your gift today at: immigrantjustice.org/donate. With your partnership, we can meet this moment and move toward justice and a stronger, more compassionate future. Together, we can ensure the ability of every person in our communities to thrive. With gratitude, Stephanie Spiro Associate Director of Protection-Based Relief, National Immigrant Justice Center | |
