The Advancing Economic Justice Community of Practice is designed to bring together funders engaged in, or interested in exploring, grantmaking practices that support positive economic outcomes for immigrant and refugee communities.
In partnership with Northern California Grantmakers we invite you to explore how California can remain a pro-immigrant state while the shifts in federal policies and funding retraction dismantle the protections for immigrants across the nation.
We invite you to join us on May 22nd for the next in-person meeting of the California Immigrant Inclusion Initiative (CIII). The group facilitates funder engagement, creates opportunities for funders to leverage the collective impact of their grantmaking, and fortify funding for the immigrant justice field in California.
GCIR is organizing a site visit to Northwest Arkansas to complement the GSP 2025 Convening for funders and philanthropic-supporting organizations.

Immigrants have helped catalyze communities in the northwestern part of the state, a region which would otherwise have experienced significant population decline.
