If you are a United States Citizen or a Legal Permanent Resident who fears that a family member, friend or loved one may be at risk of deportation, we invite you to attend a community meeting to share your story.

Achieving comprehensive immigration reform will not be easy. We can help stop the deportation-only policies that separate our families by putting a human face on the issue and addressing the harm that our troubled immigration system is causing many people.

The Family Unity Campaign under the leadership of Congressman Luis Guitterez with the Ya Basta Coalition has formally requested a meeting with President-elect Obama to ask that separation of families be put on the national agenda.

This event is co-sponsored by the Confraternidad de Lideres Conciliares (CONLICO), the Latino Leadership Circle, Latino Pastoral Action Center, The National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, and the New York Council of Churches.
