The ​WA Immigrant Solidarity Network​ is a rapidly forming coalition of immigrant and refugee rights organizations, ally groups and individuals, demanding justice, value and acceptance of immigrants and refugees in the Evergreen State, and across the world.

Organizations across the state have joined the network to collaborate on these efforts. The network has established a hotline to report immigration enforcement activity in Washington state: 1-844-RAID-REP (1-844-724-3737)

The hotline is one of the many rapid response tools that the Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network is developing. Come discuss how students, service providers and community organizers can support rapid response and solidarity efforts in Washington State.

Sponsored by UW School of Social Work, co-sponsored by the UW Department of History and UW Center for Human Rights
