Our Executive Director, Malou Chávez, joined Governor Bob Ferguson and Washington State Attorney General Nick Brown in Tacoma on April 28, along with many of our community partners.

Our Executive Director, Malou Chávez, shared that "Beyond the legal challenges and due process slipping away, our client communities are facing dire conditions [detained in ICE custody]. Some of our clients, even when immigration relief is won, are forced to remain detained while the government appeals their case. Others, give up on their defense all together because of the conditions they face and the inevitable mental health toll detention imposes."

A message from Governor Bob Ferguson:

"Today, I announced we're seeking a court order to permit health inspections at Northwest ICE Processing Center."

"The law is clear: We have the legal authority. GEO Group has obstructed our efforts."

"We've beaten GEO in court before, and we'll beat them again."

Our Executive Director, Malou Chávez, traveled to Shelton, Washington, for a Know Your Rights (KYR) presentation in Spanish and shared information about services available through NWIRP. Most of the presentation was interpreted into Mam to help make the information accessible to more community members.

Thank you to everyone who joined and participated!

Because of this incredible community, we raised more than $1.6 million last Friday night to continue defending and advancing the rights of immigrants. ✊🏼

Your support means that when people are detained, we are there. When families need legal protection, we are there. And when communities are under threat, we are there.

Together, we can build communities that are not only protected, but able to thrive, because everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Thank you for standing with us. ✨

Thank you, Inatai team, for bringing us together and giving us additional tools to lead with intentionality and purpose. And Malou and Vanessa got to hang out with Francis, NWIRP Board Member, in Spokane!

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Magdaleno Rose-Avila, NWIRP’s former Executive Director. 🕊

Leno was a beloved leader in civil and human rights movements. We are grateful for his time at NWIRP, and our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. ❣

The law doesn’t always deliver justice, but our community does. 💪🏾

Today is , and we invite you to join us in supporting this important work. With your support, we can continue providing the legal resources needed to stop deportations, reunite loved ones, and challenge the cruel policies and practices that target our communities.

Immigration status should not determine a person´s access to safety, stability, or justice. But every day, the system tries to make it so.

Join us, and give today. ✊🏼
