2019 Awards
Honoring Courageous Luminaries
On October 3, 2019, join the National Immigration Law Center and the NILC Immigrant Justice Fund as we celebrate the immigrant justice movement’s collective accomplishments to forcefully challenge the Administration’s punitive and repressive policy agenda, and ensure that low-income immigrants and refugees can thrive and live freely, safely, and with dignity. There are so many great advocates to celebrate in this important work; please come to cheer them on!
All event proceeds help sustain our work to advance justice, equity, and opportunity for low-income immigrants and their families.
