✨#25 - We loved being part of the Bladensburg Day Festival in October! We’re so excited to officially join the Bladensburg community after opening our Maryland office this past January. It was great to connect with neighbors, share what we do, and be in community.🧡

✨#27 This year, a special project focused on the #domesticworker community, which primarily consists of immigrant women. Our goal was empowerment through education: ensuring they understand their rights, recognize job expectations, and identify minimum standards for safe and fair employment.

✨#28 As the school year began, #allies showed up strong, standing alongside immigrant families amidst increased immigration enforcement. This year, we delivered many #KYR across DC/ MD, working with public/charter schools to ensure educators & parents know their legal rights & can protect students
