Celebrating 20 years of Families For Freedom
Families for Freedom is a New York- based multi-ethnic human rights organization by and for families facing deportation.
Founded in September 2002, Families for Freedom is a NYC-based human rights organization by and for families facing and fighting deportation. We are immigrant prisoners (detainees), former immigrant prisoners, their loved ones, or individuals at risk of deportation. We come from dozens of countries, across continents. FFF seeks to repeal the laws that are tearing apart our homes and neighborhoods; and to build the power of immigrant communities as communities of colour, to provide a guiding voice in the growing movement for immigrant rights as human rights.
FFF has evolved into an organizing center against deportation. We are source of support, education, and campaigns for directly affected families and communities - locally and nationally.

Campaign With Us
Families for Freedom is recognized as a preeminent organizing support center for families affected by criminalization and deportation. By centering the experience and expertise of New Yorkers at the intersection of the immigration and criminal legal systems, we contest social exclusion and develop the leadership of directly affected people in their own liberation. Resisting the labels of ‘Illegal Immigrant’ and ‘Criminal Alien’ that posit us as an exception to U.S. Civil Rights, FFF assert our common humanity by situating our work in a human rights framework (UN Declaration of Human Rights, 1948).
