Justice Begins with Your Voice

SEPA Mujer works toward a world where all immigrant women live free from violence, with the power to decide over their bodies, their lives, and their future. Since 1993, we have supported Latina women in Long Island through legal services, community support, education, and leadership development.

Our commitment is unwavering: to transform fear into collective strength and personal stories into movements for justice. Here, you will find a safe space for yourself, for your rights, and for your voice

Our Program Officer represented SEPA Mujer in Albany for a day of advocacy. We joined our partners at NYIC, CRC, and MCNNY to send a clear message: New York must defend immigrant communities. Our Demands: ✅ Invest in Immigration Legal Services. ✅ Pass the Access to Representation Act (A270/S141). ✅ Pass the BUILD Act (A2689/S4538). It was a non-stop day—from distributing materials throughout the Capitol to meeting directly with lawmakers. We had productive conversations with Assemblyman Tommy John Schiavoni (District 1) and Assemblyman Steven Stern (District 10). We shared the reality of our grassroots outreach, the strength of our chapter meetings, and moving testimonies from our clients in District 1 and District 10. We discussed how essential SEPA Mujer’s legal services and resources are for Long Island, and we thank the Assemblyman’s offices for taking the time to listen and engage with us.
