Redressing Injustice Help Desk

In the course of the War on Terror, Muslims and other marginalized communities have faced egregious state violence, and they continue to be targeted without any accountability from the US government. For victims of state violence, even when the direct abuse ends, many are left in precarious situations and face challenges including poverty, homelessness, unemployment, and mental and physical health concerns. To address the lack of accountability and victims’ needs for immediate support, the focus of this program is on providing tangible assistance.  

Our help desk activities include:

  • Research and writing support for articles, thesis, and other documents as requested

  • Support in the creation and drafting of fundraising campaigns to meet victims’ needs

  • Advocacy support for victims and/or family members who have loved ones in detention
