Impact Fund uses the Courts to fight for Immigrant Rights.
We fund large-scale civil rights lawsuits that hold corporations accountable, challenge discriminatory government practices, and repair the damage they cause.

oUR 2026 vICTORY FOR iMMIGRANT Youth:
Head Start programs provides food, education, and family services to more than 800,000 children every year.
In our lawsuit with the ACLU to protect Head Start programs, we stopped the Trump Administration from excluding children from Head Start based on immigration status.
We also stopped the Trump Administration from implementing their ban on “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility” within the Head Start program and enacting further mass layoffs of federal Head Start staff and office closures.
We fund cases that protect immigrants, public benefits, healthcare, education, the environment, civil rights, and more. We also field a legal team that files similar lawsuits, and we train attorneys to better serve their communities.
