Federal agents conducting warrantless immigration raids across Minnesota. Families separated. People detained without due process. Protesters met with force. People killed on our city’s streets. These abuses didn’t begin with this operation. They have existed for decades, the result of an immigration system that fundamentally disregards international human rights standards. 

Since 1983, we have defended the rule of law. We remain committed to that mission now more than ever.

Your gift today puts you on the front lines with us, confronting human rights abuses, impacting people’s lives, and advocating for the implementation of international human rights standards.

We envision a world where all people live with dignity and justice. Our community of volunteers, attorneys, interns, partners, staff, subject matter experts, and financial supporters powers our work. Together we:

  • provide free immigration legal services to people fleeing persecution, unaccompanied children seeking safety, victims of human trafficking, and detained immigrants;
  • amplify the voices of human rights defenders;
  • drive policy reforms to protect the rights of LGBTIQ+ people, women, migrants, and children;
  • work to end human trafficking;
  • advocate for the abolition of the death penalty; and,
  • make education a reality for 375 students at our Sankhu Palubari Community School in Nepal.

 

Together, our community protects human rights and transforms lives.
