Mission
SAFE seeks to empower immigrants and vulnerable populations who have been marginalized due to their sexual orientation, gender identity, and other factors to reach their fullest potential by providing humanitarian assistance while fostering understanding and cooperation among diverse communities.
What We Do
Legal Clinics
–
SAFE has teamed up with RUSA LGBT and Congregation Beit Simchat Torah to offer the Ark pro se legal clinic to immigrants looking for assistance.
leadership recruitment
–
SAFE identifies and then collaborates with recent immigrants who would like to further their personals goals (e.g., achieving legal immigration status, finding a job, accessing healthcare, etc.) while giving back to the community. SAFE views each individual holistically and as an agent in their own empowerment rather than as a “case.”
Community building
–
SAFE connects individuals with wider communities and encourages social entrepreneurship and innovation.
