Help for Immigrant Families Post-Election
Since the election, service providers and community-based organizations report that immigrant communities are in a panic. President-elect Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric throughout the campaign has immigrant families worrying that they could be targeted, detained, deported. As a trusted institution in immigrant families’ lives, schools can play a critical role in ensuring immigrant families have access to important information and resources.
