June is National Immigrant Heritage Month. MAC is proud to support immigrant families and to advocate for the removal of barriers immigrants face in accessing their education rights. During the month of June, we’re sharing resources, informing people about our work with immigrant families, and asking for your support for that work. Celebrate with us:
