I am so excited to share that in a little over a month I’ll be running the New York City Marathon! I am running to raise money for Soccer Without Borders, an organization that builds community for immigrant youth across the country.
As many of you know, I have spent the last year representing non-citizens in New Jersey, including a lot of children. The Trump administration has been systematically targeting and removing protection for these children.
All summer as I brought kiddos from their summer vacation into my office to talk about the horrors they lived through, I kept thinking about orgs like SWB who bring joy and sense of place to immigrant youth.
