EMM is the arm of the Episcopal Church that advocates on behalf of refugees and immigrants. "The vulnerability of refugees and other at-risk immigrants demands that our Church press for justice and dignity for immigrants," said EMM Director, Richard Parkins. "We hope these grants will help to build linkages with parish and diocesan programs as a way of weaving the concerns of immigrants and refugees into the fabric of faith."

Grant applications are available on the EMM website and are due by July 20, 2007 for funding during the period August 1-December 31, 2007.
