International Rescue Committee in Tucson

06/03/2026

Save the Date! The United Nations designated June 26th as it marks when the UN Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishments came into effect in 1987. Yet in 2026, over 30 years later, torture continues to permeate societies around the world, despite it being an international crime.

The Arizona International Rescue Committee’s Survivors of Torture Program invites you to honor Survivors of Torture by participating in a multi-visual showcase, made in partnership with survivors living in Arizona. We hope that this experience helps educate on who survivors of torture are, what they have experienced, and what services are available to them.

The event will be held at Joe Valdez Main Library on Tuesday 6/16, 10:30AM-4:00PM. Please join us!

Happy National Volunteer Week! This week, nonprofits and other organizations across the country will celebrate the contributions of our volunteers and interns. Whether welcoming families at the airport, driving them to medical appointments, registering kids for school, or delivering job readiness training, our volunteers touch the lives of countless refugees, immigrants, and survivors of trafficking. We are exceedingly grateful for their collaboration and partnership – we are stronger together. Follow along this week to celebrate our IRC CITY volunteers. Who knows – maybe you’ll wind up wanting to join the team!”

IRC has we released a new report detailing how sweeping U.S. policy changes over the past year are destabilizing refugee and immigrant families nationwide—putting legal status, child safety, and economic security at risk. Take a look and check out the data and human stories.

To ensure refugees and other newcomers to America are protected from being sent back to life-threatening dangers and can continue to contribute to communities across the country, IRC programs are stepping up to meet this deeply challenging moment.

Arizona Gives Day is more than a fundraiser – it’s a movement. Be part of it and build a better Arizona together!

“Arizona Gives Day is a powerful opportunity to celebrate and support the nonprofits that serve our communities every day,” says Kristen Wilson, CEO of AZ Impact for Good. “It’s a chance for everyone, regardless of income, to be part of something bigger – an investment in the well-being of our communities.”

Whether you choose to give $10 or $1,000, every dollar makes a difference. Donors can also increase their impact by creating a personal fundraiser to encourage friends, family and colleagues to participate; setting up a recurring gift to provide ongoing support; or sharing our campaign page Arizona Gives Day on social media to inspire others to join in.
