Saturday’s Training was a great success! ✨

Thank you to everyone who attended and took the time to prepare, learn, and strengthen their knowledge to help make our communities safer and more informed for everyone.

These actions are part of the mission of SOPHIA Waukesha, where inclusion, education, and the protection of immigrant communities remain a priority. Together, we continue building stronger communities through empowerment, awareness, and support. 💙

For the first time in 25 years, people in Wisconsin prisons will be able to apply to have their sentences commuted.

It could mean a real shot at coming home sooner — and hope for their families.

But information is scarce behind bars, and many have questions. Natalie Yahr and Brittany Carloni report on what people need to know. 👇️

Today’s SOPHIA Waukesha Community Breakfast was a powerful reminder of what solidarity truly looks like in action.

We are deeply thankful to our keynote speaker, Janan Najeeb, whose message on solidarity as an act of resistance moved and inspired us all. Her words challenged us to stand with intention, to lead with courage, and to continue building bridges rooted in unity and justice. It was a message that will stay with us long after today.

To everyone who joined us this morning THANK YOU for being present, for sharing space, and for strengthening this community with your voice and your energy.

And a heartfelt thank you to La Casa de Esperanza for graciously hosting us and providing such a meaningful space for connection.

Together, we continue to rise — in unity, in purpose, and in hope. ✨
