CAROLINA MIGRANT NETWORK

The Carolina Migrant Network continues to be the ONLY organization in the Carolinas providing FREE legal representation for people in immigration detention centers and in removal proceedings. Their funding is under attack! 40% of CMN’s funding has been lost this year! Without legal representation, people in detention are far more likely to be deported, separated from their families and forced back into dangerous conditions.

DONATE to The Carolina Migrant Network

*RED CARDS in English/Spanish will be available at the Sept 3rd social event.

LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY

By establishing this network, ICLT aims to create a grassroots support system that can respond quickly and effectively to the needs of these communities, which may be at increased risk due to current political policies and rhetoric. The project reflects ICLT's commitment to defending democracy and protecting the rights of marginalized groups in the face of potential threats to civil liberties and social programs.
