When immigration raids leave children without parents in Chaparral, New Mexico, the Assumption Sisters are there to welcome them. With open arms, they support children whose parents were deported or detained into their convent to provide shelter, sanctuary and stability in a time of grave uncertainty.

The Family Reunification Fund is a response to the human tragedy unfolding on our southern border, where recent family separations and policy debates have exposed the profound misery of those fleeing their countries and coming to the U.S.
The fund will support ministries that provide direct outreach and advocacy for immigrant families separated as a consequence of our broken immigration system. The fund will mainly benefit existing ministries on the southern U.S. border with Mexico, specifically those that are actively sheltering, defending, and caring for immigrants and their families.
