A veces un artículo pone en palabras algo que vemos todos los días en este trabajo.
Los casos de inmigración tienen formularios, fechas límite, citas, audiencias y números de caso. Pero para la persona que está pasando por el proceso, nunca es solamente un caso. Es su familia, su futuro y, muchas veces, años de sacrificio e incertidumbre.
Por eso nos gustó este artículo de la American Immigration Lawyers Association. Hace una pregunta muy de Tennessee, “¿Qué haría Dolly?”, para hablar de algo que también importa mucho en nuestro trabajo: tratar a cada persona con dignidad, escuchar su historia y no olvidar nunca a la persona detrás del expediente.
Vale la pena leerlo.

Sometimes an article puts into words something we see every day in this work.
Immigration cases involve forms, deadlines, appointments, hearings, and case numbers. But for the person going through the process, it is never just a case. It is their family, their future, and often years of sacrifice and uncertainty.
That is why we liked this article from the American Immigration Lawyers Association. It asks a very Tennessee question, “What would Dolly do?”, to talk about something that matters in our work too: treating people with dignity, listening to their story, and never forgetting the person behind the file.
It is worth a read.

Drawing on Dolly Parton’s legacy of compassion, dignity, and hope, AILA Board Member Brittany Faith reflects on how Dolly's recording of “Deportee” speaks to immigration advocacy today: honoring the names, stories, and humanity of those our members represent and defend.
