📰On Tuesday night, World Relief Durham attended the City Council meeting to discuss the Durham City budget🪙.

Recent federal policy shifts have targeted and stripped legal status from many longtime residents—who were previously documented— but now are vulnerable to ICE detention and deportation. This, and hundreds of recent immigration policy changes, has sparked a critical need in our community for nonprofit, low-bono, legal services to ensure our long-term residents 🏡 can safely remain in Durham.

We ask the City Council to invest funding into preventative legal defense ⚖️ to reflect the needs of the large immigrant population that has deeply contributed to Durham.
