We at New England JFON focus on just one thing: Getting immigrants the legal status they need to avoid deportation.

Tragically, our work has never been more important or more challenging. As has been true for over 12 years, we are committed to fighting for our immigrant neighbors' continued access to justice and hope.

Join us at this critical time by donating to our fall fundraiser: https://donorbox.org/2025-fall-fundraiser

All gifts received by September 30th will be matched, providing twice as many services when they are needed most.

With your help, we will continue to accompany our clients every step of their journey, no matter what challenges we face, no matter how long it takes.

We are delighted to announce that our Pathway to Hope program for unaccompanied youth has just accepted its 100th client!

Especially in this current climate, we are gratified to be able to walk beside these children who have undergone such horrific experiences and exhibited such bravery, arriving in the United States without a parent or guardian.

The path is long, but we will remain with them until they have achieved their legal status and are able to fully enjoy safety and security in their new home, the United States.
