Know Your Rights

In response to federal changes to immigration policy, Lowell Alliance hosted a 2017 presentation in partnership with the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition (MIRA) to "train the trainers" about the rights of immigrants and refugees regardless of their status, and how to ensure those rights are protected.

The Know Your Rights workshop provided information about how to prepare for interactions with local and federal law enforcement.  We continue to monitor changes in immigration policy and will offer additional information and resources to residents as needed.
