Ever wonder about the intersection of corporate agriculture and migration in Iowa? Join us to learn more about the policies and factors that have contributed to migration patterns and implications of global climate change on migration in the future.

Iowa MMJ staff are experts in the field of immigration and happy to help communities learn and better understand the systems, injustices and advocacy/service opportunities related to migration. In the next few months we’ll be presenting to faith communities, community groups, university classes and service providers. We know there’s a lot to learn and a lot of work to do as we build a movement for immigrants’ rights in Iowa. Let us know if you’d like to book someone for your group or event and click here to donate to support the work!

What does a welcoming and inclusive Iowa mean to you? Do you feel like you belong in your community? Iowa MMJ is working with the University of Northern Iowa, the University of Kentucky and the Opportunity Agenda to do some research on how Iowans (new and long-time residents, those who identify as coming from immigrant or refugee communities and those who don’t have a lived experience of migration) feel about these things. Let us know if you’d like to participate in the research project with us!
