A Gathering of Support for the KBI

Sunshine and warmth marked the Sixth Annual Kino Border Initiative Dinner, a yearly event that recognizes the important mission of the KBI and helps to fund it.

The Role of Advocacy

Establishing advocacy committees in the U.S. and Mexico to promote humane, just and workable policies for migrants is the latest in the KBI’s strategies to support migrant families, keep them safe, and create conditions in which they can thrive. Immigrant aid organizations and human rights groups work for legislative reform and social justice all year long, but the month of February, Ignatian Family Advocacy Month, is a chance to reach out to Catholics and other concerned individuals, …Read More
