What we do

We Are All America is a national refugee led movement that has steered the emergence of an effective national organizing infrastructure that can mobilize public support for people fleeing violence and persecution, counter nativist forces, and develop more welcoming policies and practices in this area at the federal and state levels.

Thanks to our Steering Committee, WAAA has increased the number of state-based organizers, from five states in 2017 to over 25  states today. Our collective field represents the largest national grassroots organizing effort on behalf of refugees and immigrants in the nation — largely composed of organizers who, themselves, have come to the US as refugees and asylees and are overwhelmingly Middle Eastern, African, and / or Muslim American.
