National JFON—2007 in Review: As we begin a new year, it is part of our nature to look back and reflect on the accomplishments, challenges and triumphs of the past year. The national JFON network has much to be proud of.

We have served approximately 2,275 clients at over 200 clinics held in 19 cities (plus those held at resettlement centers in Dallas and Fort Worth) across the nation. But, more than these sheer numbers can express, we have helped to reunite families, enabled our clients to access social services, helped immigrant communities better understand their rights, responded quickly to emerging threats such as workplace raids, and advocated on the behalf of our immigrant neighbors before local, state, and national bodies as well as various Presidential hopefuls.
