The NoCo Emergency Immigration Fund (EIF) was ISAAC’s original accompaniment fund. The EIF was established in 2017 under fiscal sponsorship from Foothills Unitarian Church. As ISAAC has grown and become an independent nonprofit, the fund has also grown and become a core project of ISAAC’s Accompaniment programming.
Now called the Accompaniment Fund, this project houses a number of separate initiatives to meet the emerging needs experienced within Larimer County:
Family Crisis Fund - cash assistance to people experiencing a crisis who are locked out of more traditional forms of credit and support due to barriers such as legal status, identification requirements, and language and literacy barriers. During the COVID crisis, this fund gave support to over 1500 vulnerable families in the county.
Legal Fund - legal scholarship funds for immigrants, migrant workers, asylum seekers and refugees to working on their immigration legal process, prioritizing unaccompanied youth, DACA recipients, migrant workers, victims of violence, and families with young children
Adelante and Cultivamos Funds - need-based support for upskilling, leadership training, capacity building and professional development for youth and adults. Read more about Adelante and Cultivamos!
