Being part of the SEARAC team has been an experience full of gratitude, growth, and belonging.

Daily, I feel a sense of belonging and purpose amongst my colleagues and within the immigration advocacy spaces I work in. The culture of care that SEARAC has created with our priority around employee wellness has contributed to the gratitude and growth that I feel in both my personal and professional life.

My family's experience as Lao refugees is a major part of why I choose to invest in SEARAC's mission. One of my top personal values is community. Through SEARAC, I am able to give back to my community and my ancestors by building power and recognition not only around our needs but also our talents and joy.

In this past year, with the Southeast Asian Deportation Relief Act, we've been able to make momentous strides in legislation that acknowledges and fights for immigration rights in our communities. As we look ahead to 2023 and the work that still needs to be done, I invite you to join our movement for the rights of Southeast Asian Americans to heal, to be seen, and to family. We’re working to amplify the stories of refugee resilience and aid the process of rebuilding our community. Will you support our work in 2023 and beyond?
