ADVOCACY AND ORGANIZING KEY ADVOCACY NUMBERS: 2024 LEGISLATIVE SESSION The Advocacy Team at the CRC had another successful year engaging clients, volunteers, and community leaders in the effort to build a truly equitable nation. Led by our Deputy Executive Director and Community Organizer, the CRC took part in 20 rallies across New York state to push for immigrant-friendly legislation that would protect and defend immigrant rights. Through partnerships with the New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) and consistent collaboration with other nonprofits that serve immigrants across the state, the Advocacy Team educates and organizes our community members to become civically minded and attentive to current events. Overall, 548 community members were engaged in advocacy efforts, events, and workshops. Our clients are part of a New York legacy, a vibrant and ongoing history of immigrant culture, which is why our Community Organizer and her team who are also immigrants themselves, commit to the hard work of activism.
