Strangers No Longer Circles Assist
Families in Crisis Team
Circle leaders are organizing their circles, parishes, and friends to respond to immigrant families suffering from the family separations through detention and deportation. At least 10 parishes are taking responsibility for the survival and health of immigrant families, and every 2 weeks, a Stranger No Longer network of nearly 30 people meets by zoom to coordinate care for families and individuals by providing visits and conversation, translation services, childcare, clothing, financial assistance, and accompaniment to court dates. They were even able to help a mother through her recent birth of her baby. This Stranger No Longer network is called FACT, or Family Assistance in Crisis Team. Contact us at info@strangersnolonger.org for more information.
