Allow The Rhizome Center for Migrants to continue to support the deported community in Mexico

Posted April 5, 2020

The Rhizome Center for Migrants' (www.rhizomecenter.org) Mexico Project based in Guadalajara, Jal. defends and supports the rights of the deported community through legal, reintegration, and humanitarian support. The global pandemic and the economic destruction it is causing create major challenges that threaten our programs. We seek assistance to determine if we qualify for any of the financial support programs made available under the CARES Act (i.e. payroll protection, disaster loans, etc.), so that we can continue to fund our operations and pursue our work this year.
