A Welcoming Place For Immigrant Families.
Utah is home to 278,724 immigrants with more than 17,000 of those being immigrant children. They are our family members, neighbors, friends, peers, and colleagues. From driving privilege cards, in-state tuition for our undocumented youth, and the NEW State CHIP Program, Utah has continued to make strides to ensure that our state is a welcoming place for all, regardless of status.
To address issues mixed-immigration status families face, Voices is committed to working with leaders in our state to uplift pressing issues in Utah's immigrant community by:
- Working to ensure policies are inclusive towards our mixed-status and undocumented families.
- Fighting against the harmful chilling effects of the Public Charge Rule.
- Finding policy solutions that address the unique challenges and gaps that exist for immigrant families.
- Leading a coalition of immigrant right advocates.
We will continue to work alongside immigrant communities and leaders to ensure Utah is a welcoming place for all.
