In our first conference, we aim to build our collective voice and power by bringing together 300 immigrant leaders, policymakers, advocates, service providers, communities of worship, and other
area leaders. Together, we will raise awareness about the realities of immigrants in rural northern Michigan, and explore collaborative, action-oriented ways to create a region where all
Michiganders belong and thrive. We hope you’ll join us! Register here
