When buses of immigrants from Texas and Florida arrived in Chicago in the summer of 2022, the Haitian Congress to Fortify Haiti (a local organization led by members of the Haitian diaspora) stepped in to help. The group has supported nearly 350 Haitian families who fled gang violence in Haiti as they began rebuilding their lives in the United States. As ICE operations have increased across the country under the Trump administration, the organization has continued to help families navigate the complex immigration system, access resources, and stay safe. In this episode, we speak with the organization's executive director about the challenges of supporting Haitian migrants and what continues to drive their work. Produced by Obed Lamy obedlamy.com for Reparations Media NFP | In collaboration with the Haitian Congress to Fortify Haiti Haitian Congress.orgDonate to Reparations Media & Change Agents Production LabFollow us online:Reparationsmedia.orgchangeagentsthepodcast.comchangeagents@reparationsmedia.org
