TRANSFORM
Ally Engagement + Civic Engagement
Transform is our program, rooted in the sentiment that no one can accomplish things alone. Aliento believes in broadening the coalition of support to create sustainable change in our communities and achieve Aliento’s mission of transforming trauma into hope and action. This is why we do professional development for educators and host trainings with faith leaders, school leaders, and state legislators.
Civic Engagement and Policy is our approach to ensure systems and structures are welcoming to all students regardless of immigration status. In 2022, Alientos students, allies, and coalition partners led the passage of in-state tuition and college scholarships for Arizona students regardless of immigration status.
