TPS, a special immigration status in the US, has been extended and redesignated for Haiti!! We thank @POTUS @VP @SecMayorkas and urge for the quick release of 1) Haitians in immigration detention centers and 2) the Federal Register Notice so eligible Haitians can apply.
Beyond Borders' Child Protection Brigades are trained to intervene to protect children from living in a system of forced labor called restavèk. Everyone is welcome to enter these circles where we are building a more just and equitable future. #RememberSlavery #StandUp4HumanRights

"I consider the description of Haiti as the poorest nation of the Western Hemisphere to be a gross misrepresentation; Haiti is, rather, the nation most impoverished by the effects of white supremacy." -Dr. Michel DeGraff in his NYT Opinion Essay, nyti.ms/3s2Mnn6

Unrest continues in many parts of #Haiti. People are suffering because the US continues to prop up a mandate-less regime. We join with Haitians asking our government to #lethaitiansdecide for #Ayiti.
Sunday we will stand in solidarity with Haiti's people in their calls for an end to this regime, which would fall without US support. The US must stop our anti-democratic policy of hand-picking Haiti's leaders and propping up regimes in Haiti. bit.ly/3E7vRJO #Ayiti
561 families have lifted themselves out of extreme poverty with the support of Beyond Borders' Family Graduation Program. #GoodNews
*Advocacy Opportunity* We are asking the Biden administration to stop supporting the corrupt government in Haiti. That government would fall without US support, allowing a Haitian solution to emerge. All are invited to march in Washington, DC this Sunday. bit.ly/3E7vRJO

Join @UndocuBlack @amnestyusa and @HaitianBridge @wearecusp and @RefugeesIntl to demand that the US government put an end to the racist #Title42 policy once and for all and to respect the human rights and dignity of Haitian people at the US-Mexico border.
Beyond Borders will present at the Sexual Violence Research Institute in Mexico this week - We are sharing the programs we adapted in #Haiti which have been shown to reduce domestic violence by half!
