Immigrant Rights and Advocacy Fellowship

About the Fellowship:

The Immigrant Rights and Advocacy Fellowship recognizes and supports individuals with a demonstrated commitment to immigrant rights advocacy work within the State of Oregon.

Fellowship funds provide monetary support for professional development and immigrants rights advocacy work, such as:

• training, workshops, or coaching;
• skills development in leadership, community organizing;
• continuing education or study;
• development of a new community-based organization or initiative.

The Immigrant Rights and Advocacy Fellowship was established from funds managed by Seeding Justice due to the dissolution of Causa. The dissolution of Causa was a huge and disruptive loss to the Immigrant Rights Advocacy community. Our charge is to manage the distribution of assets and to steward these funds into immigrant advocacy and organizing.
