Borderlands Resource Initiative's vision is a society transformed by the strength and resilience of asylum seekers and migrants. The "crisis" is entirely preventable. This is America's opportunity to defend our founding values. 1/41 The crisis is — Migration is not a crisis. About Borderlands Resource Initiative Borderlands Resource Initiative is transforming how Phoenix responds to immigration enforcement- centering compassion, knowledge, and solidarity. We build coalitions, expand community capacity, and work directly with impacted migrants to protect their rights and preserve family unity. BRI’s vision is a society transformed by the strength and resilience of asylum seekers and migrants. Our role in this vision is to demonstrate the possibilities when our communities and policies are rooted in dignity, respect, and transformative justice. Eddie Chavez Calderon Campaign Director Arizona Jews for Justice, P hoenix, AZ "The Borderlands Resource Initiative will be a beacon of hope for migrants navigating complex circumstances. Beth Strano's dedication to migrant rights and her instrumental role in driving impactful initiatives are a testament to the transformative potential of compassionate leadership within migrant advocacy. As a formerly undocumented migrant, I wish I had a Beth when my mother and I were on our migrant journey. Her hands-on approach, coupled with a deep understanding of the challenges faced by migrants, ensures that our initiatives address immediate needs and also contribute to lasting solutions." Astrid Dominguez Executive Director Good Neighbor Settlement House, Brownsville, TX "Beth Strano [from Borderlands Resource Initiative] is great! She is a thought partner, and someone you can trust to explain the processes and help you analyze what improvements can be made in your programs. Her support has allowed me to identify new opportunities for Good Neighbor Settlement House, including enhancing current practices and implementing new ones."

Every day, immigrants walk into ICE and USCIS appointments uncertain of what awaits them—some never walk back out. Families deserve to be prepared, informed, and supported. Our Accompaniment program ensures that no one navigates these moments alone. Accompaniment Program Every day in Phoenix, immigrants attend ICE check-ins — moments that can determine their future. With immigration enforcement intensifying, these check-ins carry deep uncertainty and risk. Yet, many immigrants attend alone, without legal representation or community support. Borderlands Resource Initiative and Puente Human Rights Movement believe that no one should face these moments in isolation. We’ve partnered to lead the Accompaniment Program, creating a community-led response to ensure support, connection, and advocacy for immigrants navigating this process. Together, we are: Ensuring a constant presence at ICE check-ins, and immigration court appearances so that no one has to attend these meetings alone. Providing Know Your Rights information and pro se support to people attending court hearings. Expanding emergency response for detained immigrants, including activating safety plans and mobilizing advocacy networks immediately when someone is taken into ICE custody. Laying the groundwork for pro se legal clinics and case management, helping immigrants assert their rights and prevent unjust deportations. In May 2025, ICE officers were told to meet a quota of 250 arrests per day ! Widget Didn’t Load Check your internet and refresh this page. If that doesn’t work, contact us. !
