Washington, D.C., April 27, 2022. Nearly 400 Hispanic Catholic leaders will join Catholic Relief Services (CRS) on Wednesday to urge senators from 30 states to prioritize addressing the root causes of migration in Central America. Through face-to-face and virtual meetings, the group will ask lawmakers to prioritize effective solutions to tackle climate change and food insecurity and create job opportunities and peaceful communities in the region. The Hispanic Catholic group will also ask their senators for legislation that provides a path to citizenship for DREAMERS and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) holders and the legalization of agricultural workers and other undocumented essential workers.
Catholic Relief Services partners advocate on Capitol Hill in Washington to urge Congress to prioritize addressing the root causes of hunger and poverty.

Global issues like hunger, climate change and poverty affect millions of our sisters and brothers every day. We are called to help, but it can feel overwhelming and like nothing we do makes a difference.  

The good news is—when we work together as a community—we can effect transformative change. And you can be a part of this extraordinary community and lifesaving work! 

If you are passionate about building a better world and want to help our global family members most in need, we invite you to learn more about starting or joining a CRS Chapter or High School Club. 

CRS Chapters and Clubs are local communities of people across the United States who come together to: 

  • Dive deeper into today’s most pressing humanitarian and international justice issues. 
  • Grow in fellowship and support each other in our collective mission to build a more just world. 
  • Advocate, fundraise and take other meaningful action to address the root causes of poverty and help people most in need. 
  • Develop skills to advocate more effectively and inspire their community to take action. 

Hear what CRS Chapter and Club members are saying: 

“My CRS Chapter provides the training, the community to feel confident and the knowledge to be politically involved and bring about systemic change.” -Kelsey Harrington, CRS Chapter leader 

“As a student, CRS gave me a world perspective on the Church by helping me understand how we are all connected and invited to work as one body to uplift each of our members.” -Madeleine Woolverton, CRS University Chapter advisor
