As a nation built by immigrants, America should maintain our history of hospitality to people who come to our shores seeking safety and opportunity. With a vigorous voice, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service brings this message of welcome to our country's halls of power.
In all policy changes, LIRS works to ensure that vulnerable newcomers are protected. We draw upon expertise serving unaccompanied children, torture survivors and other migrants at risk. We monitor issues such as human trafficking, international humanitarian disasters and immigrant detention as they impact the migrants we serve.
