Reaching At Promise Association (RAPSA) launches campaign to support disconnected students in Minnesota due to recent ICE Raids.
As ICE unleashes terror in Minnesota, students throughout the state are avoiding school—severely accelerating disconnection rates. In response to this turmoil, RAPSA has launched a national campaign to provide the following essentials so that students can engage in virtual learning and minimize their interaction with federal enforcement:
- digital devices
- internet hotspots
- nutrition
- transportation
- other vital essentials
Please watch the following, curated YouTube playlist with testimonies from students, parents and educators that illustrate how these ICE raids have disrupted youth education and safety. Please check back for additions to this playlist.
Recent federal enforcement actions have heightened fear and instability, creating emotional and psychological barriers that threaten to disrupt the education of our most vulnerable students. Now more than ever, our students require consistency, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to their well-being from the entire At- Promise and Alternative Accountability education community nationwide.
Donations will support students throughout the state and those specifically served by RAPSA’s Minnesota partner:
