Pro-Immigrant Sentiment
ACLAMO partners with Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition (PICC) to advocate for pro-immigrant and pro-refugee policies at the local, state, and federal levels. Our core advocacy areas which align with PICC are education justice to ensure that immigrants and refugees have access to safe and welcoming schools that support them (equity policies, language access, fair funding) and promotion of just and humane federal immigration policies.
ACLAMO also participates in the PA is Ready! network to engage in leadership development within immigrant and refugee communities; participates and leads community-based immigration services to increase access; participates in know your rights campaigns to disseminate information to the community; and does various types of community outreach.
