When we photographed her, it was nine months to the day she found sanctuary in a small Southwestern church to avoid deportation. The community she has been a part of for thirty years has rallied in support, and people speak of her with words like kind, a nurturer, strong in her faith, a great sense of humor, and humble. They have started a website called Rosa Belongs Here where they have vowed to stand by her.

Rosa Sabido took sanctuary at the United Methodist Church in the small town of Mancos, CO in June 2017. Rosa has called southwest CO home for 30 years. When her stay of removal was suddenly denied without explanation last year, she made the brave and difficult decision to fight to stay in her community with her family, and join a movement fighting for justice for all 11 million undocumented folks in the U.S.
Rosa needs our support to show Congress & ICE that the community is behind her, saying #RosaBelongsHere
Rosa Sabido tomó santuario en la iglesia United Methodist en el pueblo pequeño de Mancos, CO en junio 2017.
Rosa ha llamado a el suroeste de CO como su hogar para 30 años. Cuando su suspensión de deportación fue negada de repente y sin explicación el año pasado, ella tomó esta decisión valiente y difícil para luchar por quedarse en su comunidad con su familia, y unirse a un movimiento luchando por justicia para todos los 11 millones de inmigrantes indocumentados en los EEUU.
Rosa ocupa nuestro apoyo para mostrar al Congreso y al ICE que la comunidad esta detrás de ella, diciendo que #RosaPerteneceAqui
