The Southeast Immigrant Rights Network (SEIRN) represents many groups and organizations that are primarily devoted to serving the immigrant community. While each organization maintains its own identity and governance, we share a common vision. SEIRN's mission is to build just and inclusive communities throughout the South by supporting immigrant rights organizations, fostering regional collaboration and peer exchange, strengthening alliances with the progressive movement, and facilitating joint analysis and action on issues of common concern.
