HIAS NY Legal and Asylum

Join HIAS for a monthly program in which volunteers write letters of compassion and solidarity to people in immigration detention and participate in a short learning session that reflects on issues facing refugees and asylum seekers. Participants must be 18 or older. All letters will be sent and received by HIAS to protect privacy. Letter Writing is a remote program held on Zoom.

Note: We are unable to accommodate participants in this program from outside the Greater Washington, DC or New York City areas. This program is for individual participants and not groups – for information on limited group volunteering experiences with HIAS, please contact maya.murarka@hias.org.
