The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) was founded in 1986. CHIRLA is a California leader with national impact made of diverse immigrant families and individuals who act as agents of social change to achieve a world with freedom of mobility, full human rights, and true participatory democracy. CHIRLAs mission is to achieve a just society fully inclusive of immigrants. CHIRLA organizes and serves individuals, institutions and coalitions to build power, transform public opinion, and change policies to achieve full human, civil and labor rights. Guided by the power, love, and vision of our community, CHIRLA embraces and drives progressive social change. For over 30 years, CHIRLAs innovative programming in community education, community organizing, legal services, civic engagement, policy and advocacy, and leadership development for youth has served the immigrant communities of the Los Angeles region. CHIRLA was formed in response to the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, which made hiring undocumented workers illegal, thus creating a situation ripe for worker exploitation and abuse which have increased since that time. |
