Emergency Funds for Undocumented Immigrants of UT

Donation protected
We are an anonymous group of Hispanic social workers in homeless services, and the lack of resources and funds for the undocumented community is unacceptable. Housing vouchers which were once widely available due to covid relief have dwindled, and were not accessible to undocumented homeless folks in the first place. Emergency rent/financial relief typically comes with a laundry list of requirements, and many require a social security number or legal status in the US. Undocumented immigrants do not have a social security number, nor do they have access to benefits such as Medicaid, Food Stamps, SSI funds, etc., which typically provide relief to US citizens and residents who are low income/homeless.
 
The purpose of this is to eliminate barriers for homeless/low-income undocumented folks in the state of Utah. Whether it's for rental assistance, emergency funds, or medical accessibility (including abortion funds), the goal is to create a pocket of money to redistribute where the only requirements are:
1. Be undocumented.
2. Be in financial need.
 
Please consider donating or sharing this campaign to help the undocumented community of Utah.

Somos un grupo anónimo de trabajadores sociales hispanos en servicios para personas sin hogar, y la falta de recursos y fondos para la comunidad indocumentada es inaceptable. Los cupones de vivienda que alguna vez estuvieron ampliamente disponibles debido al alivio del covid se han reducido y nunca fueron accesibles para las personas indocumentadas sin hogar. El alquiler de emergencia/el alivio financiero generalmente viene con una larga lista de requisitos, y muchos requieren un número de seguro social o estatus legal en los EE. UU. Los inmigrantes indocumentados no tienen un número de seguro social, ni tienen acceso a beneficios como Medicaid, cupones de alimentos, fondos de SSI, etc., que generalmente brindan alivio a los ciudadanos y residentes estadounidenses de bajos ingresos o sin hogar.
 
El propósito de esto es eliminar las barreras para las personas indocumentadas sin hogar/de bajos ingresos en el estado de Utah. Ya sea para asistencia de alquiler, fondos de emergencia o accesibilidad médica (incluidos los fondos para el aborto), el objetivo es crear una bolsa de dinero para redistribuir donde los únicos requisitos son:
1. Ser indocumentado.
2. Estar en necesidad financiera.
