Introducing Our First-Ever Home Is Here Opportunity Program Participants!

Photos of 2024-2025 Home Is Here Opportunity Program Participants.

The Home Is Here Opportunity Program was created in 2024 by Immigrants Rising in partnership with the Home Is Here Coalition to inform and encourage all immigrants, regardless of status, to create their own opportunities, earn a living, and thrive despite current threats to the DACA program. By providing leadership experience and professional development for undocumented people across the country, this program will build immigrant leaders while empowering and building resiliency within immigrant communities.

In our inaugural year of the Home Is Here Opportunity Program, we have selected 30 participants who will join the 2024-2025 cohort. Click on their profiles below to read about them!

We’re excited to see the program participants grow in their leadership and deepen their knowledge of resources, all while actively sharing valuable information with their communities.
