ABOUT MIXTECO INDIGENA COMMUNITY ORGANIZING PROJECT

Founded in 2001, Mixteco/Indígena Community Organizing Project (MICOP) supports, organizes and empowers the indigenous migrant communities of California’s Central Coast through improved access to health and community resources, community organizing, language interpretation, education, direct assistance, cultural promotion, and our indigenous-led Radio Indígena community radio station.

Summary

MICOP's OFY-RR Funds Project program takes a trauma-informed, youth-centered approach to supporting Indigenous and non-Indigenous Undocumented Unaccompanied Minors living in Ventura and County. A majority of the youth experience trauma due to a number of reasons, including arriving in the U.S. after being forced to leave their home countries, being held in immigration detention, being separated from their families, the isolation of living in a new country, as well as the pressure of navigating the U.S. immigration system. The need to access resources, advocacy, and follow-up is extensive for both youth and their sponsors. The Coordinator is expected to provide leadership, guidance, and oversight to the OFY team while ensuring youth and their sponsors receive consistent, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed support.
