What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Intersectional Leadership Development
United We Dream and our local branches are fully committed to create the next generation of leaders. Through our trainings and convenings, we are building a sustainable grassroots organizing/advocacy movement at the local, regional, & national levels, informed by an intersectional/racial justice lens, & providing transformative leadership development & tools & resources to support our leaders & member organizations.
Advocacy
UWD works to secure policies that protect our communities and defend our local victories through organizing, strategic communications, advocacy, and direct action strategies.
UndocuHealth & Wellness
Our leaders apply a healing methodology and racial justice lens to our work; we will hold healing retreats regionally for staff and volunteer leaders involved in deportation defense work, and convene community gatherings—on line, by webinar, call, or in person—for support, healing, training, and strategy. We have begun offering healing and wellness workshops: our UndocuHealth program provides a safe space for immigrant youth to express and make sense of their feelings, and teach a number of techniques-- from breathing exercises to spiritual Native American practices, to support them in coping with stress or feelings of anxiety and depression. We continue to provide know-your-rights (KYRs) sessions on immigration, direct action organizing, mental health, and alliance building. We build relationships across diverse immigrant groups and with non-immigrant allies engaged in the broader fight for racial and social justice, and to counter feelings of isolation while strengthening the fight for justice.
