We’re working to ensure every child in need in our community has a passport.
Family separation is a real risk in families where members have different immigration statuses. The U.S. passport application process can also be daunting when you have financial and language barriers. Your donation will help Mi Chiantla staff work directly with Washington families in need to address these challenges. We hope to prevent prolonged family separation in case a parent of a U.S. citizen child is unexpectedly deported.
Donations help cover the following costs for families in need.
- Covering child passport application fees and passport photo costs
- Covering related attorney fees
- Providing interpretation and translation services, as needed
- Providing advice on the overall process and filling out required forms
- Providing transportation to passport and photo appointments
