The Marin County Board of Supervisors has approved a resolution for a $500,000 investment aimed at supporting immigrant communities affected by recent federal initiatives. The funding will enhance legal education, family support services, and coordinated assistance for immigrants facing safety and access challenges. The resolution reflects the county's commitment to ensuring all residents, regardless of immigration status, feel safe and valued, as emphasized by Board President Mary Sackett. This initiative aims to alleviate fear stemming from policy changes and immigration enforcement actions within the community.
As a county, we have a responsibility to ensure that every resident, regardless of immigration status, feels safe, supported, and valued.
This investment in immigrant support services is not just about funding - it's about reaffirming our values and making sure people in our community have access to the help they need.
