The Interfaith Welcome Coalition came together in the summer of 2014 in response to the overwhelming need of unaccompanied children coming to the United States from Central America.
In response to the crisis, a broad network of faith communities & community organizations began working closely with a local legal nonprofit organization.
The work evolved and now the IWC collaborates with many other organizations serving refugees, asylum seekers, and at-risk immigrants and serves as advocates for the needs of these vulnerable populations.
