Responding to Federal Enforcement Escalations: Lessons from Local and Regional Funders

About

Across the country, communities are facing waves of federal immigration enforcement actions featuring unprecedented new tactics, including the deployment of military personnel and other operations that heighten fear, surveillance, and instability. In this moment, philanthropy has a critical role to play, not only by moving quickly to fund rapid response efforts, but also by sustaining community power and safety through legal support and narrative strategies that affirm justice and belonging.

Join us for our upcoming network huddle as we bring together funders who are actively coordinating response strategies in various cities. Speakers will share what they are seeing on the ground, how their institutions are adapting, and what they are learning about how best to support communities in real time while building the long-term infrastructure needed to resist attacks and prevent harm.

Please note that this discussion is intended for our philanthropic colleagues. Participants should come to this session prepared to learn and share details about their work. This session will not be recorded, though transcription will be available after the call.
