5X the impact for safer, stronger communities.

Your gift will fund programs that actually work →

Dear Pamela, The Trump administration's approach is clear: soldiers on our streets, cuts to reentry services, and the dismantling of common-sense reforms. The need for Vera's work to defend safety and justice has never been greater. Justice is on the line. When you donate today, every dollar will be 5X-matched. Help Vera protect human dignity and defend communities before this opportunity ends tomorrow. Real safety doesn't come from federal troops being deployed to cities in the name of "law and order," deporting immigrants, or mass incarceration. Real safety comes from investment in people and communities—in housing, mental health care, reentry support, and due process for immigrants. Despite attacks from the administration, Vera's work continues thanks to the support of people like you: In New Orleans, we helped secure $38 million in city funding for violence prevention, affordable housing, homelessness outreach, and education. We're keeping people out of jail by expanding diversion programs from Arizona to Massachusetts. We're fighting for due process, leading an initiative across 22 states to secure legal representation for immigrants facing deportation. These programs are working. They make communities safer and stronger, and your support makes them possible. Right now you can make 5X the impact. Give now and your gift will be matched.
