Policy Reform

We actively lobby for policy reform at the state level, with a primary focus on California and Colorado—two states where immigration policy intersects heavily with human rights concerns. Our advocacy efforts target state legislators and agencies to push for laws that protect immigrant families, prevent abuses in detention centers, ensure due process, and support equitable access to legal representation.
