At Upwardly Global, our mission is to support immigrant and refugee professionals as they rebuild their careers and contribute their skills to communities across the United States. Recent events and public conversations have caused fear and uncertainty for many newcomers, and we want to affirm our support for immigrant communities that enrich and benefit our country.
We are seeing prominent figures scapegoat and attack entire communities, causing widespread fear and uncertainty among many of those who work alongside us and contribute to our country’s vitality.
In the UpGlo community, immigrants and refugees are our jobseekers, staff members, program alumni, and leaders. In every community, we stand together as neighbors, caregivers, and essential workers. Immigrants and refugees contribute every day to the strength and economic vitality of the United States.
Upwardly Global remains committed to supporting our jobseekers and uplifting immigrant communities. We encourage public dialogue that recognizes the contributions of the many individuals who have come to this country seeking safety and opportunity.
