Brookline United for Immigrant Justice

BRJE helped raise nearly $10,000 to support frontline organizations—including Fuerza, La Colaborativa, Lawyers for Civil Rights, and the Luce Network—that protect immigrant communities and provide rapid response to ICE detentions. The town-wide event at United Parish, featuring Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and covered in Brookline News, sparked community dialogue on federal accountability, resisting harmful immigration policies, and strengthening local support networks.

Bystander Training

BRJE organized a community bystander intervention training in partnership with the ACLU of Massachusetts and JALSA, equipping residents with concrete tools to safely support neighbors targeted by harassment or immigration enforcement. The training helped build community readiness, collective responsibility, and a shared understanding that safety is created through solidarity, not surveillance.
