Free Migration Project

Robert suffered a medical emergency resulting in him being in a coma up until recently. His wife, Joanna, has fought for his care every step of the way, even through what could have easily turned into a medical deportation. Free Migration Project has been supporting this family through difficult conversations with the hospital and by bringing a community together around Robert and Joanna. But the accident and the hospitalization has put a serious strain on the family monetarily considering the amount of care he still needs.

Last month FMP's Deputy Director, Adrianna, spoke at a Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition (PIC) convening to establish priorities for 2026. FMP is a proud member of PIC and during this time especially organizations must come together to create lasting change and protect the immigrant community here in Philadelphia and across Pennsylvania.

Medical deportation is the removal of an uninsured immigrant patient from the U.S. by a hospital without the consent of the patient or their family.

On Thursday, the ICE Out legislation will be introduced in City Hall. Come out to demand City Councilmembers sponsor and support this legislation to protect our community members! Meet us on the 4th floor and don’t forget your ID.

Free Migration Project is a proud member of the Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition (PIC) along with 60 other members. This past Friday, we participated in a member convening to discuss priorities going into 2026, and how this group of organizations can work to face the challenges out communities are facing.

This year marks 10 years of the Free Migration Project—10 years of standing with migrants, fighting unjust detention, and pushing for freedom. We’re celebrating all year long, and the best way to honor this work is by becoming a monthly donor. Your ongoing support helps sustain the movement for free migration, every single month.
