SERVICES & IMMIGRANT RIGHTS & EDUCATION NETWORK
Mission Statement
SIREN (Services, Immigrant Rights, and Education Network) is a vehicle for low-income immigrants and refugees in Northern and Central California—adults and youth—to be their own agents for change. We do this through community education and organizing, leadership development, legal services, and policy advocacy. SIREN is the most recognized community champion of immigrant and refugee rights in San José and the Silicon Valley. SIREN is known for its engagement and coalition building with a diversity of Latin American, Asian, African, and Middle Eastern immigrant and refugee communities and for driving model policies for immigrant and refugee rights and immigrant integration in Santa Clara County and California.
