Over 500 GHIAA and Hartford Deportation Defense leaders filled the lawn at Church of Christ Congregational in Newington to stand up for the 7 residents taken from their workplace by ICE agents over the weekend. At a time when families should be preparing for the school year, these families were ripped apart. Our message was clear: our many faith traditions are united in prioritizing justice and care for immigrants, and our state needs to do more to protect our immigrant neighbors. Together with HDD and other immigrant-led organizations, GHIAA is demanding data protection, prohibiting ICE from courthouses, virtual court hearings, and continued access to healthcare regardless of immigration status.

Email communications provide updates on GHIAA, Neighborhood Organizing and Urban Suburban Affordables and our latest actions.
CLJ develops and organizes leaders in neighborhood-based and multi-faith alliances to build power and act collectively for systemic change toward social, racial, and economic justice.

📢 ADD YOUR NAME / AÑADA SU NOMBRE
The Center for Leadership & Justice’s Neighborhood Organizing Department, together with the North Hartford Public Safety Coalition, is calling on residents, faith leaders, and community partners to support the reactivation of Hartford’s Police Accountability Review Board (PARB).
The PARB has been inactive since January 2024, leaving Hartford without an independent body to review police conduct, address community concerns, and ensure transparency in public safety.
This work reflects our shared commitment to justice, accountability, and community-centered systems of safety.
Your voice matters. Your name matters. Our community’s safety and trust matter.
