We The Action Volunteer,

Good morning, and welcome to our weekly digest of current volunteer legal projects.

You're invited to an exclusive lunch & learn event to learn more about the effort to support Afghan refugees!

Join We The Action and Texas immigrant justice organization VECINA for a conversation about the current state of asylum applications for recently arrived Afghans. During this Zoom event, VECINA will discuss how processes have (and haven't) changed under the Biden administration and what's next for refugees and asylum seekers in the U.S. Click here to sign up!
