After a long struggle, we are overjoyed to share t After a long struggle, we are overjoyed to share that Masuma Khan has been released and is finally home with her loved ones. 

Her unexpected detention was devastating for her family and our community, but the outpouring of support, care, and action helped bring her home. This is what community power looks like. When we show up for one another, we win. We are deeply grateful to our partners at Public Counsel, Hoq Law, and to our amazing immigration attorney for their tireless advocacy and commitment throughout this fight. 

This is a moment to celebrate and also a reminder that the system that detained Masuma continues to harm so many others. Our work will continue until everyone can live free and safe with their families.

If you or someone you know has been impacted, please reach out to SAN for additional resources and support.
The need in our community is growing fast. As fami The need in our community is growing fast. As families lose critical food support, the impact is immediate and heartbreaking. With SNAP benefits being paused, more and more people are facing food insecurity.

Your donation, no matter the size, helps us provide groceries and essential support to local families who need it most.
