Sur Legal Collaborative (SUR) is an immigrant and worker rights non-profit organization based in Atlanta, Georgia. We provide education and legal support to communities, grassroots groups, and legal advocates to promote an end to (1) labor abuses against workers; (2) ICE detention and illegal deportations; and (3) the prison industrial complex and the police state. Founded by attorneys with expertise in immigration, appellate, and labor law, Sur uses legal tools to support movements and campaigns led by immigrants and workers. Immigrants in Georgia face some of the harshest immigration policies, toughest immigration courts, and worst detention centers in the country. Furthermore, immigrants are among the most vulnerable workers in the country, often working in hazardous industries run by unethical employers. Covid has exacerbated and exposed many of these issues, but federal oversight has declined. Though imperfect, labor laws can empower immigrant and low-income workers to overcome the culture of fear and gain access to the rights and justice to which they are entitled.

Hola Facebook,

Bienvenidos a nuestra pagina! Sur Legal Collaborative (Sur) es una organización de derechos de inmigrantes y trabajadores sin fines de lucro con sede en Atlanta, Georgia. Sur utiliza la defensa, la educación y el litigio para construir el poder de los grupos de base que trabajan para poner fin a: (1) Abusos laborales contra los trabajadores; (2) Detención de ICE y deportaciones; (3) El complejo industrial penitenciario y el estado policial. Fundada por abogados con experiencia en inmigración, apelación y derecho laboral, Sur utiliza herramientas legales para apoyar movimientos y campañas liderados por inmigrantes y trabajadores. Los inmigrantes en Georgia enfrentan algunas de las políticas de inmigración más duras, los tribunales de inmigración más duros y los peores centros de detención del país. Además, los inmigrantes se encuentran entre los trabajadores más vulnerables del país, a menudo trabajando en industrias peligrosas dirigidas por empleadores poco éticos. Covid ha exacerbado y expuesto muchos de estos problemas, pero la supervisión federal ha disminuido. Aunque imperfectas, las leyes laborales pueden empoderar a los trabajadores inmigrantes y de bajos ingresos para superar la cultura del miedo y obtener acceso a los derechos y la justicia a los que tienen derecho.

Knowledge is power, and preparation brings peace of mind. 💡
Last Wednesday in Gainesville, we met with our poultry worker community for an essential Know Your Rights workshop.
We discussed the ICWC v. Noem lawsuit for U and T visa applicants, how to handle increased ICE and police presence during election season, essential documents to carry, and setting up emergency contact networks.
No one has to face uncertainty alone—we stay safe together! 🤝❤️
