"Hope and truth are connected. Hope is not naivete. It is bearing witness to truth, still believing in better, and yielding the energy to contribute to better." -Bernice King

If you're feeling scared, lost, or hopeless: seek community.

Together, we will continue the fight to build a better world. Every day we continue to welcome refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants. No matter who occupies the executive office, we’ll always stand with those most vulnerable in our communities, and none of us can do it alone.

If you're looking for a way to soothe your soul and connect with others, consider joining our community of supporters, volunteers, donors, and partners.

Locally, the IRC in Seattle has been supporting and advocating for the rights of vulnerable and forcibly displaced people since 1977. We won't stop today, tomorrow, or ever.
