The Migrant Solidarity team is engaged in diverse efforts, including providing direct support, and connecting All Souls Congregants with volunteer opportunities with local organizations serving migrants, and advocating for immigration and refugee policies that are consistent with our UU principles. The Migrant Solidarity Team leadership engages in the larger metropolitan area dialogue with the DMV Sanctuary Congregation Network, a coalition of 70 congregations across a spectrum of spiritual faiths coming together to focus on providing support to local immigrants in our region.
At least twice a month, we will have information available on new actions that people can take to support the immigrant sanctuary movement (including signing up for specific volunteering opportunities, writing to local and Congressional representatives, and providing direct supports to individuals and families in need). We also collaborate with local immigration rights organizations to highlight their work and educate our congregation on additional opportunities to engage.
