description

With the promise of tougher enforcement under a new administration, organizations across the state of Florida are mobilizing and organizing to defend immigrant and other marginalized communities. Florida has been among the battleground states in the fight for immigrant rights with recent passage of SB 1718 and other harmful policies aimed to curb migration into Florida and stoke fear within communities.

With federal- and state-level threats, groups in Florida are thinking creatively about how to defend, protect, and expand the rights of immigrant and refugee communities, starting at the grassroots, local level. Join this webinar to learn from a panel of leaders about opportunities for philanthropy to resource this movement at the state and local levels.
