Hello! We’re back with issue #7 of the California Dignity for Families Fund (CDFF) Newsletter Series: Learning for Immigrant Justice. This month we speak with two of CDFF’s nonprofit partners who specialize in working with unaccompanied youth and providing them with legal and social services.
This month we spoke to several of our CDFF nonprofit partners about the importance of providing legal services and support to migrants. Without legal aid, many migrants would not be able to navigate the complex American legal system and access their right to pursue lifesaving protections and essential services.
This month we’re exploring the importance of providing in-language support to those who do not speak English proficiently so they can access essential services and resources, regardless of their native language or country of origin.

The recent political stunts of relocating migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, Washington D.C., and New York City distract us from the urgent needs of the 2.4 million people who arrived and were apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border this year. We invite you to look past the media sensationalism of these stories and learn with us as we focus on the rights, wellbeing, and dignity of migrants and share insights from the work being done at the border to support them.
