Currently thousands of families displaced from their homes across Central America and Mexico due to political and economic instability are temporarily staying along the border while trying to apply for refugee status in the United States. At KRC we are connecting with local organizations in Tijuana (Iglesia Embajadores de Jesús, Fundación Regalando Amor) to support the 250 migrant families staying in a cathedral in Tijuana. We are delivering non-perishable food, new children's clothes, soap and hygiene supplies, and medicine. You can bring them to KRC's office and we can deliver.

Jacob was suffering abuse from his uncle since 3 years old until his cousin Amy who connected him to KRC for help. KRC assisted Jacob to obtain status and work permit, and now he is able to live on his own with a better quality life.

SAN FRANCISCO — Nonprofits serving immigrant communities and advocates for racial equity, health, children, farmworkers, and working families today filed suit to block implementation of the Trump administration’s “public charge” regulation, which threatens millions of immigrant families — disproportionally families of color. La Clínica de la Raza et al. v. Trump et al., filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, asks the court to declare the regulation issued by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) unlawful and unconstitutional. DHS finalized the regulation on August 14, 2019. 

In addition to La Clínica de la Raza, the suit was brought by African Communities Together, the California Primary Care Association, the Central American Resource Center, the Council on American Islamic Relations - California, Farmworker Justice, the Korean Resource Center, the Legal Aid Society of San Mateo County, and Maternal and Child Health Access. The plaintiffs are represented by the National Immigration Law Center, Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Los Angeles, the National Health Law Program and the Western Center on Law and Poverty.
