Rian Immigrant Center

🎄 Merry Christmas from all of us at the Rian Immigrant Center! Wishing you joy, peace, and warmth this holiday season.

To our supporters, thank you for standing with us and making our work possible—you inspire us to continue building a brighter future together. In observation of the holiday, we will be closed Thursday November 28th and Friday November 29th

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our community members and supporters! At Rian, we are deeply grateful today and every day for the strength, resilience, and contributions of our immigrant communities.

Our Immigration Legal Services team met with 16 incredible families and served 50 individuals, offering legal guidance and support during this crucial time. All of us here at Rian are proud to stand alongside the Haitian community and provide the resources they need.

This past Monday, we had the privilege of hosting one of our TPS clinics at Rian's offices for our Haitian community in Boston.

We hope to see you all there! For more information and tickets, please visit: loom.ly/VHdeq0w
