La Mif

Migrant Resource Collective

We are a group of friends, volunteers, and West African asylum seekers in Brooklyn who work together to provide essential resources and host cultural enrichment activities. The name "La Mif" is a French slang word meaning Family.

We have run asylum and work permit application clinics, resume workshops, a job fair, a theater club, and monthly film nights with free halal dinners. We have distributed medical supplies, hygiene kits, blankets, jackets, food, and other critical resources. We also help organize other programming, like beach days or museum visits. We use our funds to pay for programming and occasional emergency financial support. Thank you!
