Standing Strong for Immigrant Family Day!
On Thursday, April 23, Mission Action and our partners will celebrate the 20th annual Immigrant Family Day rally and celebration at San Francisco’s City Hall. Together with our partnering organizations in the San Francisco Immigrant Legal & Education Network (SFILEN), we will gather hundreds of supporters to uplift immigrant communities, share our stories, and call for the protections and policies our families need to thrive. In the current political landscape, the need for solidarity and support in our immigrant community has never been greater. This event is both a rallying cry for advocacy of immigrant rights, and a celebration of our successes and shared struggles.
Each year, Mission Action and our SFILEN partners hold Immigrant Family Day on the steps of City Hall as a day of civic engagement. Together, immigrants, families, friends, and allies gather to ask the Board of Supervisors and the Mayor’s office to continue supporting San Francisco’s immigrant families by advancing policies that support the rights of the immigrant community.
The 2026 event will include a morning rally, with personal testimonials of successes and struggles, entertainment from youth-led performing arts groups, and a celebration to advocate for immigrant justice, complete with a shared meal. Both touching and joyful, the festivities will unite our communities in shared advocacy, because we truly believe that diversity makes our communities stronger.
Thanks to our supporters, Mission Action, SFILEN, and our partners can continue advocating for low-income immigrant families in San Francisco. Your support ensures the most vulnerable populations are heard by City Hall as we fight for the right for every resident to live and work under the protection of this “sanctuary city.”

“I volunteer with my teenage kids in the family shelter, because we feel uplifted by the joy the children express when we share arts and crafts or games – and the relief we see their parents experience. It is a gift to be able to do one small thing to improve the day of folks who have experienced many hard days – just as it’s a gift the way they improve ours!
Supporting Sanctuary in Action
Mission Action operates on the front lines of the crisis impacting San Francisco’s immigrant communities, providing emergency shelter, legal representation, and economic opportunity to families under siege. Your support enables free legal services to continue for nearly 1,000 clients each year and wrap-around support services for 3,000 families, like Eliana’s, annually.
A $5,000 gift could fund legal representation for an entire family facing deportation proceedings, while $10,000 supports emergency shelter services for dozens of individuals each month.
