Mississippi Immigrants Rights Alliance

The Mississippi Immigrants Rights Alliance (MIRA) is located at 4436 North State Street in Jackson, Mississippi, United States. MIRA advocates, educates, and organizes immigrant and allied communities to raise awareness of immigrant issues in housing, education, healthcare, and the workplace.

Immigrant rights are a complex issue that impact various aspects of society, including politics, education, healthcare, law enforcement, and the economy. MIRA focuses on four interconnected areas of action to address these issues comprehensively. Your donation to MIRA supports social justice efforts in Mississippi, including recovering stolen wages, combating police harassment and discrimination, educating communities about rights, and amplifying marginalized voices in legislative processes.

MIRA believes in empowering immigrants to advocate for themselves by providing knowledge and tools to navigate legal and social systems effectively. The organization educates individuals and communities on immigrants' rights and how to respond to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.). MIRA advocates for a pathway to citizenship for undocumented communities, distributing thousands of vaccines to Mississippi's immigrant population.

Currently, there is an urgent humanitarian crisis at the border, and MIRA is actively involved in addressing this issue. The Mississippi State Department of Health is hosting virtual meetings on immigration reform under the Biden Administration and a special COVID-19 town hall for the Hispanic community. MIRA is committed to advocating for immigrant rights and promoting social justice in Mississippi.
