Orange County Justice Fund's Victories since 2017
Successfully distributed over $300,000 in bond funds, resulting in the freedom of 72 individuals from immigration detention, and the reunification of these individuals with their children, parents, families, and loved ones;
Successfully advocated for the City of Irvine to allocate $5 million of the American Rescue Plan Act local fiscal recovery funds for the most vulnerable residents, students and workers, impacted by the pandemic, regardless of immigration status;
Secured funding from the Legal Empowerment Fund by ChangeLawyers to reach the 12,773 OC residents and families facing deportation at the Santa Ana Immigration Court and advocate for the establishment of legal services, especially those without legal representation that continue to defend against their deportations at immigration detention centers in Southern California; and,
Launched Cafecito Contigo, a pilot healing program for OCJF's bond recipients that identify as female to create a holistic space for themselves to heal on their own terms from the harms of immigration detention and deportation policies.
Who is the OC Justice Fund?
The Orange County Justice Fund (OCJF) is dedicated to generating support for transformative and effective legal representation for some of the most vulnerable members of the Orange County community. OCJF was created in 2017 through a collaboration of attorneys, law professors, and grassroots leaders to ensure that no Orange County resident is forced to defend themself from deportation without an attorney and to provide support so that those individuals eligible to be released from detention can do so without being financially devastated.
Recognition of OCJF's Advisory Council will take place during the banquet ceremony.
