Read MoreVera Institute of Justice and New America announce a new way to reach the Immigrant Connection Project (ICON). Parents and their advocates can now reach us for free via Facebook messenger from abroad, by toll free telephone from inside the United States or from immigration detention, or via email from anywhere.
Join a webinar on Monday, July 30 at 4 PM EST on family separation with members of the Interfaith Immigration Coalition and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops Justice for Immigrants campaign.
RSVP HereThe Florence Project is responding to the urgent crisis of family separation by hiring a team to serve immigrant parents and children separated at the border. The Family Separation Fellow and Family Separation Legal Assistant will educate, empower, and provide legal assistance to immigrant families separated at the border–detained adults and unaccompanied immigrant children in removal proceedings in Arizona. These positions have been created in direct response to recent changes in government policies creating a zero tolerance policy at the border, and separating parents from children as an attempt to deter migration.
