“In 25 years of doing this work, I’ve never seen a policy this cruel.”
Sandy Santana, Executive Director of Children’s Rights, spoke with the ACLU’s Lee Gelernt, who has played a central role in fighting back against the Trump Administration’s policy of separating immigrant children from their families. Lee filed the national class action lawsuit that reversed this inhumane and illegal policy, and he credits Children’s Rights support of the lawsuit as having been vital to its success. Learn more about the case in this conversation.
“Children’s Rights took the lead in filing an amicus brief that added real heft to our case by spelling out in stark terms that the administration is terrorizing these little children and creating irreparable harm to them. And although the fight to protect them goes on, together we’ve won some significant battles.”
— Lee Gelernt, Deputy Director of the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project -

"No matter where they were born, no matter what borders they cross, they are still children. And because they are children, their human right is to remain with their parents."
Sandy Santana, Executive Director of Children's Rights, spoke with artist and activist Paola Mendoza about her work advocating on behalf of immigrants in the US. Paola, who immigrated to the country at the age of 3 with her family, responded to Trump's new policy separating immigrant children from their parents with her "I Am a Child" photo series, which draws inspiration from the iconic 1968 photo "I Am a Man."
