"With help from the grant, we have served 74 clients and their families during the grant period (July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023), which doubled from 35 immigrant families in the previous year. We were aware of the need for services to assist victims of crime and domestic violence in their immigration cases, but we could not have predicted that those have become over 40% of our cases in the last 12 months."
