JOIN US for a special event! Honoring our Past: Igniting our Future: ASISTA’s 15 Year-Anniversary Celebration, will be held virtually on Wednesday, October 18th at 7pm ET. We'll be celebrating our powerful history.... like our co-founders helping to create laws that have protected hundreds and thousands of survivors and their children. And we'll be previewing some of our plans for the future: how do we build on and strengthen our legacy over the next 15 years? We’ll also have some very special guests and some other great surprises!
Your support will make a tangible difference in the lives of immigrant survivors who have faced unimaginable challenges. This event is more than a celebration; it will also provide resources needed to allow for swift responses to harmful practices against immigrant survivors of domestic and sexual violence into the future.
Our goal is $35,000 and we can get there with your help.
With over 2,500 members nationwide, ASISTA’s critical work includes:
- teaching lawyers and advocates how to stop survivor deportations through expert case consultation, training, and practical resources on up-to-the-minute legal developments affecting immigrant survivors of violence;
- pushing for federal, state and local policies that ensure safety and justice for immigrant survivors of gender-based violence; and
- developing and supporting litigation campaigns to prevent the government from unfairly deporting survivors of violence.
