Rosa and her brother fled to the United States to seek safety and be reunited with their mother.
Amica Center represents Rosa and her brother.
After Rosa and her brother were released from the shelter and reunited with their mother, Amica Center helped Rosa and her family connect with the resources and services they needed to transition into their new life in the U.S. Our Social Services team helped connect Rosa’s family with English classes, mental health resources, clinics, and more. Rosa’s mother told us:
“[Amica Center staff] made me feel like they had my back, so much that my children and I don’t feel alone anymore. When my little brother and I were at the shelter where immigration sent us, we were very scared. When I met [Amica Center staff], they made me feel good, and thanks to them and their help, my mom, my siblings, and I feel supported.”
