In recent months, Ulster County, like the rest of the country, has seen a distressing increase in ICE arrests. For immigrant families affected, such arrests result in detention and family separation triggering an immediate cascade of crises: lost wages, threat of homelessness, and the daunting challenge of navigating a complex legal system.

Fear and instability are palpable and the need for tangible support has never been greater. With your support, UIDN can provide a lifeline in this time of crisis.

Please partner with us to meet our goal of $75,000.
