ASSOCIATION HOUSE OF CHICAGO RECEIVES NCLR/COMCAST GRANT TO EXPAND WORK IN COMMUNITY EDUCATION SERVICES

Chicago, IL – In partnership with the Comcast Foundation, the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., today announced a $75,000 capacity-building grant to the Association House of Chicago, a nonprofit social service agency, to expand its education work on behalf of Chicago’s Latino community. The Association House of Chicago is one of eight community-based organizations – chosen from NCLR’s Affiliate Network of more than 300 organizations throughout the nation – to be recognized with an NCLR/Comcast grant.

The Association House of Chicago will use the NCLR/Comcast grant to support its highly successful Lee y serás family literacy program. Lee y serás (Read and You Will Be) challenges the link between poverty and low literacy by encouraging parents to spend one-on-one reading time with their children and teaching parents how to build early literacy skills to help prepare young children for school. Parents and children alike benefit from reading and other learning activities that boost literacy and English language skills as part of a program that incorporates families’ culture, traditions, and personal experiences.

A formal announcement of the grant took place at the Lee y serás graduation ceremony on Thursday, July 12, 10:00 am at the Association House of Chicago, 1116 N. Kedzie Ave, Chicago, IL.

Mark Allen, Area Vice President and Board Member of Association House, stated that, “Support for the Association House of Chicago’s educational programs reinforces Comcast’s continued commitment to improving opportunities for the Hispanic community in the Chicago area.”

The ceremony marked the successful graduation of 52 participants of Lee y serás. Several representatives from the city attended along with a delegation from Comcast, representatives from NCLR’s national office, community leaders, and Association House of Chicago’ directors and staff. Alderman Billy Ocasio congratulated the graduates and said, “On behalf of the City of Chicago and the 28th Ward, I would like to thank Comcast and NCLR for their generous and inspiring gift to our community. Because of the philanthropic spirit of Comcast and NCLR, families and children enrolled in Lee y serás will build literacy and language skills, prepare for school, and spend one-on-one time reading together. These activities effectively unite culture, traditions, and personal experience to foster learning and achievement by developing the participants’ capabilities and strengthening our community.”

Founded in 1899, the Association House of Chicago was established in the settlement house tradition and today serves more than 20,000 economically disadvantaged people in Chicago through programs in English and Spanish that focus on literacy, financial education, arts, and technology, among others. The organization also offers child welfare and behavioral health services. Association House serves predominantly Latino and African American families who earn less than $10,600 a year; 70% of them lack a high school diploma or GED.

“We are so pleased that NCLR and Comcast have recognized the work we do to improve education for Latino families. In particular, I’d like to commend Comcast for providing this type of funding that will help Latino community organizations become even better at what they do well. It’s not only good for our community, it’s good for Chicago and Illinois,” said Harriet Sadauskas, Executive Director of Association House of Chicago.

NCLR/Comcast capacity-building grants were awarded in the categories of Community Development, Education, Health, Workforce Development, and Advocacy. One grant was also given in the Next Generation category, to recognize young or newly established organizations in communities that have experienced the emergence of new Latino populations. The other awardees include: Del Norte Neighborhood Development Corporation, Denver, CO; Latino Memphis, Inc., Memphis, TN; Mujeres Latinas en Acción, Chicago, IL; Spanish American Civic Association, Lancaster, PA; Congreso de Latinos Unidos, Inc., Philadelphia, PA; Tiburcio Vásquez Health Center, Union City, CA; and Youth Development, Inc. and Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce, Albuquerque, NM, who together submitted a joint proposal.

“The NCLR/Comcast grant will allow these NCLR Affiliates to keep doing the important work they do in their communities to help advance opportunities for all Latinos,” said Janet Murguía, NCLR President and CEO. “We commend Comcast for its continued support of community-based organizations that strengthen and serve the Latino community.”

Guidelines to humanize immigration raids

The federal policies have been formalized to consider humanitarian needs when deciding who to detain. A softer approach is to be taken with those such as nursing mothers.

November 24, 2007

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has formally adopted federal guidelines aimed at softening treatment of illegal immigrants arrested in work-site raids who are pregnant, nursing infants or serving as sole caregivers to children or seriously ill relatives.

The federal guidelines, publicly released last week, say that agents should develop a comprehensive plan to identify such people in raids targeting more than 150 people and work with social service agencies to assess humanitarian needs when deciding whether to detain them while processing their deportation cases.

The agency developed the guidelines with Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and plans to issue them to all enforcement offices, said agency spokeswoman Virginia Kice.

In addition, Kice said, the agency's Assistant Secretary Julie L. Myers this month issued a memo directing agents to consider releasing nursing mothers on their own recognizance and using alternatives to detention, such as electronic monitoring, as long as they pose no threat to national security or public safety.

The memo said the agency's commitment to ending the "catch and release" practice, in which illegal immigrants are released soon after apprehension, did not diminish its responsibility to recognize "meritorious" humanitarian cases, Kice said.

"ICE is committed to enforcing the law, but we're also committed to addressing humanitarian concerns," Kice said.

She added that the agency has long taken those concerns into account, but said the guidelines promulgated with Kennedy's office formalized the procedures for doing so.

The guidelines come amid a sharp increase in the number of workplace raids and other enforcement actions, leading to growing concerns about the effect on children. In recent years, work-site arrests of illegal immigrants have increased sevenfold, from about 500 in 2002 to about 3,600 in 2006, according to agency statistics.

A recent report by the National Council of La Raza and the Urban Institute found that, on average, one child is affected for every two adults arrested. In three cases studied -- work-site raids in Massachusetts, Colorado and Nebraska -- about 500 children were affected by the arrests of about 900 adults.

No young children were left homeless or abandoned, the study found, but several adolescents were left to fend for themselves under occasional adult supervision and sought aid at local food banks and other social service agencies.

In the case of the New Bedford, Mass., raid in March, a breast-feeding baby whose mother was picked up in the sweep had to be hospitalized for dehydration. In Conneaut, Ohio, last month, a nursing mother also was separated from her baby in a case that drew worldwide media coverage and the ire of activists who complained that such treatment was traumatic to children.

Immigrant advocates said the formal guidelines should help prevent such cases.

"It's a positive step in recognition of the need to humanize immigration policy," said Angela Sanbrano, president of the Los Angeles-based National Alliance of Latin American and Caribbean Communities.

Anike Tourse, spokeswoman for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, said one problem is that some illegal immigrants do not divulge their family information when arrested, fearing their children might be harmed.

Tourse said immigration raids should be stopped altogether in favor of pursuing a comprehensive solution to illegal immigration.

She said the raids have made just a minor dent in the overall problem but have caused widespread chaos and hardship for families.

"All they're doing is creating havoc and destroying families," Tourse said.

But Michelle Dallacroce, president of the Phoenix-based Mothers Against Illegal Aliens, decried the guidelines and called for a harder line against illegal immigrant mothers.

"These women are using their children as pawns to come and stay here illegally," Dallacroce said. "They should all be detained, sent back and charged with child abuse for putting their children in this situation."

Immigrant advocates said they would monitor agency practices to make sure the guidelines are followed.

Kice said agents have long taken humanitarian considerations into account in their operations.

In a September raid at 11 McDonald's restaurants in Reno, the agency identified 56 illegal immigrants, Kice said. Agents released 31 of them on their own recognizance for humanitarian reasons -- two immediately and the rest later at a local processing center. Kice would not specify the nature of the humanitarian concerns.

"Humanitarian considerations have always been part of our operational planning," Kice said.

A Bust, and a Blow to a Business
In immigration raids, unwitting employers can be victims, too

By Emma Schwartz

Posted September 22, 2007

TOWER, N.D.—Lee Zimmerman had just gotten out of the shower when he heard a knock at his front door early one morning in April. Wearing only his boxer shorts, he opened the door to a cadre of armed officers who handcuffed him and demanded to know why he had illegal immigrants working at his family's dairy.

For the next six hours, federal agents hauled employees off their shifts and out of their homes. By the time the three dozen officers finished, they had arrested 13 of the 21-person staff, effectively shutting down Zimmerman's 2,500-cow operation. "You feel completely violated," Zimmerman says.

Immigration reform may be dead in Washington. But across the country, employers like the Zimmermans are bearing the brunt of Congress's failure. The burden is likely to increase as the Department of Homeland Security dramatically steps up raids against employers who hire illegal aliens. Although employers have always been liable for knowingly engaging illegals, enforcement has been limited. Last year, though, the number of arrests from such raids increased 239 percent, and in the coming months, because of renewed attention by law enforcement, it's likely to rise even further.

Fake papers. At the same time, federal officials have announced a controversial plan to send out thousands of letters notifying businesses of employees who appear to be using false papers. If employers don't take action—which will very likely mean laying off workers—they could face criminal charges. The program, which was scheduled to take effect September 14, is on hold pending court review.

Immigrant activists have long criticized workplace raids, claiming authorities use rough tactics and split up families, leaving U.S.-born children behind. One labor union is suing the government for violating employee rights during a raid on meatpacker Swift & Co. last December. But the Zimmermans' experience points to another effect of the raids: the devastating economic impact on businesses. While some companies knowingly hire illegal immigrants—and pay with fines or jail time—others, like the Zimmermans, insist they are innocent and yet pay with their livelihoods.

Sandhills Dairy sits in the flat expanse of corn, sunflower, and wheat fields about 50 miles south of the Canadian border. When it was founded in 1996 by Lee Zimmerman's father, Mike, the family and a handful of employees worked around the clock. For three years, Mike milked the 500 cows on the night shift, and his children helped after school. Yet as surrounding dairies consolidated, Mike needed to expand. He placed ads in the local newspaper and posted notices, but few workers answered. Those who did didn't last, even though the Zimmermans paid up to $30,000 a year, plus health benefits and free housing.

So in 2001, following the example of other dairymen, Mike hired Mexican immigrants—each of whom presented what appeared to be the two required forms of identification. Soon more than half of his staff was Mexican, and the dairy was milking 700 cows three times a day. "It was the only dependable source of labor," says Mike. The workers slowly picked up English and before long were sharing summer barbecues and Christmas dinners with the Zimmermans.

Then came the raid. For the first few days afterward, the dairy's remaining workers barely slept as they tried to milk 700 cows just once a day. The delays in milking led to health problems that in turn lowered the quality of the milk. The raid also hit at the height of the breeding season; 350 calves went hours without milk, and about 30 of them died. Lacking hands to artificially inseminate the heifers, the Zimmermans had to spend more than $35,000 on bulls.

Sell-off. Desperate for workers, Zimmerman advertised again. Three locals with no experience showed up, but all were gone within two months. Mike then paid a recruiter $3,500 a head for about a dozen new laborers who were supposed to be trained and bilingual. Most of them were not. The Zimmermans had to abandon plans to more than double their herd and have started selling cows. As the story got out, the family's reputation has suffered, as well. "I hope that the Zimmermans face time, too," one person wrote in response to a piece about the raid on a local television station. "How does a person just happen to end up in Towner, N.D., [who] is illegal?!"
A Bust, and a Blow to a Business
Federal authorities, who have not charged the Zimmermans, will say only that the investigation is "ongoing." Yet the Zimmermans say they don't know what they could have done differently. Just weeks before the raid, an auditor told them their documents looked clean, although it turned out almost all were forged. And it wasn't until four months after the raid that the Social Security Administration notified them that some of their employees might be illegal. "Until we have retina scans, there is no way for the employer to tell you who exactly is standing in front of them," says Eileen Scofield, an immigrant attorney in Atlanta. "Employers still hold this vulnerability."

The Zimmermans know that all too well. Earlier this month, immigration trouble came to the farm again when authorities arrested four of the dairy's new workers at a local Wal-Mart on charges that they, too, were in the country illegally. Mike's daughter Jenny went through the work documents for each of the arrested men, reviewing color copies of their identification papers. Mike had already asked the Border Patrol to examine the documents. He says the agency refused. What else could the Zimmermans do? Jenny shook her head. "They looked real to me."

The failure of congress? When this guy got popped for hiring illegals? Paying substandard wages? Defying IRS and USCIS regulations. Stiffing the local community of an appopriate level of business revenue. Underpaying on insurance and state taxes too? And he actually said, "I feel violated".

Now that he was forced to comply it is showing. What is showing? His inability to run a business. It is failing as it rightly should. This clown along with any employer who hires illegals needs to understand the free lunch program is ending.

Immigration Raids Single Out Hispanics, Lawsuit Says

By NINA BERNSTEIN

Published: September 21, 2007

A federal lawsuit filed yesterday charges that agents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement unlawfully force their way into the homes of Hispanic families in the New York area without court warrants or other legal justification, sometimes pushing down doors in the middle of the night, in search of people who do not live there.

The lawsuit, filed in the United States District Court in Manhattan as a class action, accuses the immigration agency of conducting the raids in violation of the Fourth Amendment's protection from unreasonable searches, harming citizens and legal residents of the United States as well as foreigners here illegally.

The 15 plaintiffs -- all but one are residents of Suffolk County and seven of them are United States citizens -- describe abusive predawn raids on their homes this year by armed immigration agents. They seek an order prohibiting I.C.E. from conducting home raids until the agency develops clear guidelines to end unlawful entries, and unspecified damages.

According to the complaint, the raids are part of a program called Operation Return to Sender that was started in 2006 to arrest and deport ''fugitive aliens'' or immigrants previously ordered to leave the country. But, the lawsuit contends, ''the agents regularly raid homes where the fugitive is not present and could not reasonably have been believed to be present.''

The complaint contends that ''the unstated goal of these raids is to gain access to constitutionally protected areas in hope of seizing as many undocumented persons as possible'' to meet annual arrest quotas recently increased by the agents' superiors to 1,000 per fugitive team, up from 125 arrests in 2003. Mark Thorn, a spokesman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the New York region, said that he was not familiar with the lawsuit, and that the agency does not comment on litigation.

But earlier this year, agency officials vigorously defended the program, while acknowledging its imperfections, in response to questions about the early-morning raid on Feb. 20 on the East Hampton, N.Y., home of the Aguilar and Leon family. All members of that family are either United States citizens or, in the case of one of the children, a legal resident awaiting naturalization.

Five members of the family, including Adriana Aguilar and her mother, Elena Leon, are now lead plaintiffs in the lawsuit.

''We would like to find fugitive aliens at 100 percent of the locations we go to, but it's not an exact science,'' Christopher Shanahan, director of the New York field office of the agency's Detention and Removal Operations, said at the time. Mr. Shanahan, who could not be reached yesterday, is a defendant in the lawsuit along with his superiors in Washington.

The lawsuit, filed by the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund and the international law firm of LeBoeuf, Lamb, Greene & MacRae, contends that Mr. Shanahan was either personally involved in the raids, or ''grossly negligent in managing the training and activities'' of the agents under his supervision.

It cites recent reports by the Office of the Inspector General of Homeland Security that criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement for the inaccuracy of its database of fugitives and lack of agent training. In 2004, agency officials required that 75 percent of the fugitives each team arrested be ''criminal aliens.'' But that requirement was dropped in January 2006, when the goal was changed to 1,000 arrests per team.

In the case of Ms. Aguilar's family, immigration agents burst into their home in East Hampton to hunt for an illegal immigrant without a criminal record -- Ms. Aguilar's ex-husband, who had not lived in the house since 2003, when they divorced and he was ordered deported.

After detaining and questioning the frightened family members, including Ms. Aguilar's 12-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son, the complaint said, the agents threatened to return.

In an account disputed by agents at the time, the complaint contends that another plaintiff, Nelly Amayo, was arrested in her East Hampton home when she demanded to see a search warrant. It says agents twisted her arm and eventually left her in her nightclothes in Manhattan.

Another raid was in a rooming house in Mount Kisco, N.Y., where David Lazaro Perez and other residents were awakened about 4 a.m. March 18 by agents who did not show a search warrant. The complaint said agents took his wallet containing $700 and that it was returned without the money.

Needhelp, how about reading my reponse to your question a while back? Did you? I guess not. If you did you wouldn't ask again. There was no subversion. No handouts ever asked for or given. No demands made. No flag burning. No protesting. No attempts at skirting the rules. No, not a one.

Do this. Go out to the Arizona or Texas desert and find one of those dead people laying in the sand. Explain to their family why that happened. I'm sure they will accept what supporters of illegals have to say. It is their coaching and support that keeps them coming. Its for the cause. Maybe the cause, what ever it is, is very convincing. I don't even know what it is. No answer on that one yet.

Davdah - that's really grabbing at straws. Most people who are crossing the deserts are doing so out of desperation - so please don't blame people who are compassionate about human rights for their unfortunate deaths. That's ridiculous.

No one gets it! Its where they are coming from. That is where the rocks should be thrown.

Don't blame someone for not being compassionate enough. Our country gives out more free stuff to the rest of the world than the rest of the world combined. Now we're being labled evil since we can't rescue everyone? What the hell is wrong with you people. For anyone that feels compelled to be that giving then do it. Invite them into your home. Give them your job. Give them your stuff. Isn't your standard of living so much higher than theirs that you feel guilty? You don't deserve it, they do. Then by God give it to them. You have had it too good, too easy , for too long. Time to redistribute your stuff. Next illegal you see. Sign over the deed to your house. Take them to your job. Tell your boss that you are an ingrate and this poor person will work for less and do a better job. Do that and I will listen with absolute faith in what you say the illegals are needed, they have rights, and we need to be more compassionate.

I've stopped wondering what's wrong with them a long time ago. Here's my opinion:

1)They all share one brain cell and they have been brainwashed into thinking that we are soft and would cave in once they called us racists and xenophobes;

2) They are from lawless cultures and are bred to believe that criminal activity is the only avenue to success;

3)The breedmares think that having so many babies until their uterus' drag the ground is an accomplishment because let's face it, its the only skill they have and stoopid Americans reward them for it and they get the bonus of continuing their livelihood of chain migration;

4) Imbedded false sense of racial superiority and sense of entitlement.
5) Too **** ignorant and cowardley to stand up to their own corrupt governments.

How's that for starters davdah?

davdah & bev: you are both spot-on...time and time again I have challenged mental midgets like proudusc, hudson and other Mensa-rejects to stand behind their alleged 'support' for illegal alien douchebags..take them into their homes, let 'em use their cars, take a job from an American colleague (or their own job)and support these criminal $hitbag$...but not a single one of these wimps has risen to the challenge...instead, we hear..."racist!!!"...."xenophobe!!!"...."KKK!!!"...and my favorite..."The native Americans were here first!!!" [not sure what this has to do with anything, and neither does proudusc, hudson and other dunces]...
illegals want nothing more than to leech off of American taxpayers....and then whine for more!!!Well enough is enough...if immigration attorneys like illegals so much, then why aren't they doing 101% of their "work" [filling out simple forms] pro bono? Answer: GREED.
Close every loophole for illegals, and ship their sorry butts outta here....tomorrow.

You're an extremist, Davdah. I've never hinted at anything you are accusing me of. I have nothing to fear from these people. Do you? The way you people come on here with your rants, it appears that you are scared to death that these people are going to take away things that you've rightfully earned. Sorry. I don't share that sentiment. I believe what triggers your hatred and resentment of these people is a fear that they are taking away something you don't deserve in the first place! You're quite wealthy - you've admitted that. So, why are these people such a threat to you. Why do they cause you such heartburn? Please enlighten me, because I just don't get it!

come on wimp....show us all your true 'support' for illegal douchebags.....come on...take some into your house, feed them, clothe them, let them use your car, give 'em a job of yours or a colleague....come on...show us their 'rights'...wimp.

Yawn. You are getting so very tiresome. Have you no substance?
