9to5’s work is community-centered, and we know that immigrants are a central part of our schools, our neighborhoods, and our families. People in power are breaking up families and communities to spread fear and sow division based on race, background, and gender while they hand billionaires and corporations the wealth our work creates. Our communities are more vibrant, more beautiful, and more powerful with everyone in it. Together, 9to5 members have worked to ensure affordable and safe housing and communities that thrive. That’s why we are working to keep our communities whole and transform our nation into a place of liberty and justice for all.
