Advocacy
Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota's advocacy initiative is accomplished
through both the efforts of individual staff members and collaborations with community
organizations. Executive director John Keller spearheads advocacy efforts with
public speaking engagements, legislative committee briefings, and community planning
sessions. During the past year he attended meetings and immigration forums in
Washington D.C., helping to make Minnesota a greater participant in the national
immigration reform cause. ILCM staff members delivered presentations to community
organizations, professionals, and religious groups across the state about the
current immigration system and the urgency of immigration reform.
The
Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota is honored to be the recipient of the 2007 Minnesota
Council of Nonprofits Award in the area of Advocacy. ILCM received the award in
a ceremony during the annual MCN conference in Duluth October 4 and 5. The award
recognizes ILCM's work during the past year to advocate for positive legislative
change and for its role as a community leader in immigration matters, particularly
in the aftermath of the USICE raid in Worthington, MN in December 2006.
