One major effort of the Black Alliance for Just Immigration right now is the Reunite Haitian Families campaign. This initially involved calling for a parole program that would allow Haitians with family approved visas to come to the U.S. and stay with their families while their visas are being processed. This work has been spear headed locally by Haitian Women for Haitian Refugees. We were able to get the parole program, but it covers only 5,000 of the 110,000 Haitians with approved visas.
ONE DC is calling on our members and partners to join us in endorsing the petition for a comprehensive parole program:
