Winning an asylum case is good cause for celebration!

The Welcoming Network is 100% volunteer-run.

We rely on donations and volunteers to help fulfill our mission of supporting asylum seekers and other refugees in Santa Cruz County. Community contributions enable us to provide essentials such as medical care, food, shelter, transportation, and legal aid.
