Across the country, people seeking safety are met with a system that too often denies their humanity.

At H.O.M.E. (Humanitarian Outreach for Migrant Emotional Health), we respond with care, documentation, and courage — helping people heal, stay safe, and find protection.

In the past year, thanks to the compassion and commitment of our supporters, H.O.M.E. has:

Given voice to more than 150 individuals and families from 27 countries, documenting trauma and human rights abuses so their stories could lead to safety and healing.
Expanded our reach inside ICE detention, meeting people where they’re held and exposing the inhumane conditions too often hidden from view.
Spoken truth to power, advocating for trauma-informed policies and humane treatment throughout the U.S. immigration system.

This is what people power looks like.

Thanks to our match donors — Sergio and Martha Rothstein, David Gangsei, Judy and Roy Eidelson, Yvonne and Mark Elkin, Paul Gangsei and Susan Herman, George and Karen Longstreth, Coleen Higa in memory of Gerald Gray, Kim and Kit Knox, McKenzie Scott PC, Brute and Jennifer Wolf, Suellen Ward, and Rodney Boone, Ph.D., and Kyle Boone, Ph.D. and two anonymous donors — every dollar you give will be doubled up to $40,000, helping us reach our $80,000 goal.

Because when systems fall short, we show up for one another.
When people are silenced, we listen and lift their voices.
When compassion is tested, we remind the world that care is power.

And because of that care, lives have changed:

Elena escaped cartel violence with her child — H.O.M.E. helped them find safety.
Aapo, a community health educator serving Indigenous villages, was detained for helping his people — our report helped secure his release.
Adamma fled persecution in Nigeria — our evaluation helped her win asylum and begin to heal.
Josue and his partner survived political violence — with H.O.M.E.’s support, they are now safe and rebuilding their lives.
Keya who earned advanced degrees in microbiology after coming to the U.S. as a student, was detained by ICE after a routine traffic stop. Our evaluation documented her fear of persecution for practicing a banned religion in her home country and is helping her legal team fight to keep her safe.

These are just a few of the hundreds of people whose lives have been transformed through compassion turned into action.

They remind us that care changes everything.

This year-end, be the power of care.
Your gift ensures that no one faces the broken system alone — and that those seeking safety and healing find hope, not hostility.
