WHEN MIGRANTS SUFFER LABOR EXPLOITATION OR CIVIL RIGHTS ABUSES IN THE U.S., THEIR U.S. LAWYERS MUST WORK ACROSS BORDERS TO SECURE KEY EVIDENCE IN THEIR CLIENTS' COUNTRIES OF ORIGIN, OR TO ENSURE THAT RETURNED MIGRANTS RECEIVE JUSTICE EVEN AFTER THEY'VE LEFT THE U.S. SIMILARLY, MIGRANTS WHO FLEE VIOLENCE AND PERSECUTION NEED LEGAL ASSISTANCE IN THE COUNTRIES THEY ESCAPED TO OBTAIN DOCUMENTS AND EVIDENCE FOR IMMIGRATION CASES. WITHOUT CROSS-BORDER LEGAL SUPPORT, THESE MIGRANTS ARE CUT OFF FROM THEIR RIGHTS.WE PROVIDE MIGRANTS WITH ACCESS TO JUSTICE ACROSS BORDERS THROUGH TWO PATHWAYS. FIRST, WE MATCH U.S. LAWYERS WITH MEMBERS OF OUR DEFENDER NETWORK TO PROVIDE CASE SUPPORT IN THEIR MIGRANT CLIENTS' COUNTRIES OF ORIGIN. SECOND, WE TRAIN U.S. LAWYERS TO TAKE ON AND SUCCEED AT THE CRUCIAL WORK OF REPRESENTING TRANSNATIONAL MIGRANTS. 554618 DEFENDER NETWORK - JUSTICE IN MOTION SUPPORTS AND CHANNELS RESOURCES TO OUR NETWORK OF 45 HUMAN RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS AND PRIVATE PRACTITIONERS ACROSS MEXICO, GUATEMALA, EL SALVADOR, HONDURAS, AND NICARAGUA. THROUGH TRAININGS AND CUSTOMIZED RESOURCES, WE BUILD THEIR CAPACITY TO CARRY OUT HUMAN RIGHTS WORK AND TO EDUCATE MIGRANTS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, IN COLLABORATION WITH BROADER CROSS-BORDER INITIATIVES. DEFENDERS INCREASE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF LABOR AND IMMIGRATION ISSUES ACROSS THE REGION, AS WELL AS THE LEGAL AND POLICY FRAMEWORKS SURROUNDING MIGRATION TO THE U.S. AND CANADA. BY BUILDING THE CAPACITY OF EXISTING HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDERS IN MEXICO AND CENTRAL AMERICA, JUSTICE IN MOTION SUPPORTS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A BROADER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE BODY OF ADVOCATES ACROSS THE REGION, HELPING MORE MIGRANTS LEARN ABOUT AND DEFEND THEIR RIGHTS FOR YEARS TO COME. 428825 POLICY ADVOCACY - INFORMED BY OUR CROSS-BORDER LEGAL WORK, JUSTICE IN MOTION ADVANCES POLICY CHANGES TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF MIGRANTS IN THE U.S., MEXICO, AND CENTRAL AMERICA. UNSCRUPULOUS U.S. EMPLOYERS MANIPULATE A HUGE ARRAY OF TEMPORARY VISA CATEGORIES TO AVOID REGULATIONS AND OVERSIGHT AND EXPLOIT MIGRANT WORKERS. IN MEXICO AND CENTRAL AMERICA, FOREIGN LABOR RECRUITERS CHARGE MASSIVE ILLEGAL FEES TO WORKERS, OR TRICK THEM INTO FRONTING MONEY FOR JOBS THAT DON'T EXIST. MIGRANTS ARRIVE IN THE U.S. OR CANADA SADDLED WITH DEBT OR IN FEAR OF PUNITIVE CONTRACTS, MAKING THEM EVEN MORE VULNERABLE TO EXPLOITATION. JUSTICE IN MOTION WORKS WITH ALLIES TO (1) INCREASE TRANSPARENCY IN THE COMPLEX AND ABUSE-RIDDEN U.S. TEMPORARY WORKER VISA SYSTEM, AND (2) CURB FRAUD AND ABUSE IN THE FOREIGN VISA RECRUITMENT PROCESS IN MEXICO AND CENTRAL AMERICA. 2043067 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 X 25 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 15 15 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 NY X X COURTNEY DAVIES 6463511160 PO BOX 160128 BROOKLYN NY 11216 MARK CARON TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 AMAL BOUHABIB DIRECTOR (FROM SEPT 2023) 1.00 X 0 0 0 GRETCHEN KUHNER VICE PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 SABRINA LEBLANC DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 BETH LYON DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 MARIA M ODOM PRESIDENT 2.00 X X 0 0 0 KEN PASQUALE DIRECTOR 3.00 X 0 0 0 LUCRECIA OLIVA DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTA STEWART DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTIAN MUNOZ-VAZQUEZ SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 INGRID NAVA DIRECTOR (FROM SEPT 2023) 1.00 X 0 0 0 ELEANOR NORDHOLM DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CLAUDIA HERRMANNSDORFER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JULIE JORGENSEN DIRECTOR (THRU JULY 2023) 1.00 X 0 0 0 HEYDI JOSE GONZALEZ DIRECTOR (FROM SEPT 2023) 1.00 X 0 0 0 ANNETTE MALKIN DIRECTOR (FROM SEPT 2023) 1.00 X 0 0 0 CATHLEEN CARON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 139358 0 30630 YADIRA HUERTA DEFENDER NETWORK DIRECTOR 40.00 X 106908 0 36792 KEELI SORENSEN POLICY & GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS DIRECTOR 40.00 X 122365 0 12144 368631 0 79566 3 0 1 0 THE SUDDES GROUP 1289 GRANDVIEW AVENUE COLUMBUS OH 43212 DEVELOPMENT AND FUNDRAISING STRATEGY AND 132000 1 4015407 4015407 PROGRAM SERVICE FEES 541100 55784 55784 55784 169845 169845 6926 6926 6926 4247962 55784 0 176771 X 193245 135271 19325 38649 1145370 914517 180332 50521 26991 21322 4116 1553 225166 185282 38660 1224 103096 81425 15712 5959 13988 13988 15700 15700 132000 132000 764981 485048 161250 118683 9239 2481 2885 3873 75747 29267 43881 2599 1432 1432 72633 58049 11149 3435 108975 99236 7171 2568 3606 3606 2287 2287 LICENSES AND FEES 31343 18042 10202 3099 13247 13127 120 2939046 2043067 531816 364163 110112 117233 2759331 1391960 1201532 577302 6293 15791 10655 23525 24408 18256 6560 6152 734495 4059616 0 22543 4828978 6214122 120230 163070 120230 163070 X 3652370 5417373 1056378 633679 4708748 6051052 4828978 6214122 1308916 33388 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 2051431 2209371 2833244 3689161 4015407 14798614 2051431 2209371 2833244 3689161 4015407 14798614 258642 14539972 7366 14060 14579 28462 169845 234312 1003 0 0 0 0 1003 15033929 317426 0.96710 0.96340 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 527 0 0 527 0 PART II-B, LINE 1: IN FISCAL YEAR 2023, JUSTICE IN MOTION PRIMARILY CONTACTED LEGISLATORS IN SUPPORT OF INITIATIVES THAT SUPPORT THE END GOAL TO PROTECT MIGRANTS' RIGHTS. 24408 18256 6152 6152 4281350 33388 33388 4247962 0 4247962 2939046 0 2939046 0 2939046 CENTRAL AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN - ANTIGUA & BARBUDA, ARUBA, BAHAMAS, 0 0 PROGRAM SERVICES PAYMENT FOR CONTRACTED SERVICES, TRAINING, AND EDUCATION 349982 NORTH AMERICA - CANADA AND MEXICO, BUT NOT THE UNITED STATES 0 0 PROGRAM SERVICES PAYMENT FOR CONTRACTED SERVICES, TRAINING, AND EDUCATION 91581 0 0 0 0 0 0 441563 0 441563 0 0 0 0 0 0 PART I, LINE 3: JUSTICE IN MOTION ACCOUNTS FOR EXPENDITURES IN THE LISTED REGIONS USING THE ACCRUAL METHOD OF ACCOUNTING.
