The Seattle Times recently published an article How a Seattle immigration leader is reacting to Trump’s agenda highlighting how a local Seattle immigration leader, Hamdi Mohamed is responding to shifting federal agendas. The piece talks about what many of us know well – when national policies change, immigrant and refugee families feel the impact, from job insecurity to fear of family separation.
This reality is why Refugee Women’s Alliance (ReWA) is so vital. For more than 40 years, ReWA has been a trusted anchor in Seattle’s immigrant and refugee communities, offering wraparound services that go far beyond legal support. From English classes and job readiness training, to housing, gender-based violence survivor support, and early childhood education, ReWA helps families build stability and self-sufficiency, especially during uncertain times.
