ImportaMí is a project dedicated to providing reliable, accessible, and relevant information to unaccompanied children and their sponsors in the United States.
Our goal is to support and empower children through key resources and referrals to legal and social service providers. Our service aims to deliver information that is accessible, accurate, and contextualized to the specific needs of children.
ImportaMí is part of Signpost, an initiative of the International Rescue Committee in collaboration with other agencies that creates digital help centers to empower people impacted by conflict, disasters, poverty, and violence. ImportaMí is one of the multiple Signpost projects within the Latin America-US region, with a focus on helping unaccompanied children in the United States.
