TO DENY PEOPLE THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS IS TO CHALLENGE THEIR VERY HUMANITY.
– NELSON MANDELA

The Human Rights and Advocacy program empowers and supports migrant communities through comprehensive initiatives, including a migrant shelter preparedness program, human rights tools, educational human rights teach-ins, and a resource library dedicated to migrant issues.
