What we do

We Empower

We empower families by providing critical resources, connecting them with their children, assisting with access to treatment, and helping with difficult decisions about immigration, sponsorship, and care. We do whatever is necessary to get children released from government custody and into safe, loving homes and communities.

We Educate

We educate the public about current and past U.S. immigration policies and their impact on vulnerable children and families fleeing violence. In partnership with research centers and universities, we create data-driven media, articles, and presentations.

We Advocate

We advocate for families by advising lawmakers on the consequences of current policies and the changes required to safeguard the mental and physical wellbeing of children fleeing violence. We do this work in partnership with community and national civil rights organizations.

Commissary

Reports from Dilley ICE detention include worms in food, dirty water that causes stomachaches, and restless nights under fluorescent lights that never fully turn off. Many families rely on what they can buy at the commissary. You can fill a family’s commissary account.
