About this organization
Mission
TO END DISAPPEARANCE AND UPHOLD HUMAN DIGNITY ALONG THE U.S.-MEXICO BORDER.
About
THE COLIBRI CENTER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS WORKS TOGETHER WITH THE FAMILIES OF DISAPPEARED MIGRANTS TO FIND TRUTH AND JUSTICE THROUGH FORENSIC SCIENCE, INVESTIGATION, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZING. COLIBRI BEARS WITNESS TO THIS UNNECESSARY LOSS OF LIFE, SUPPORTING FAMILIES IN THEIR SEARCH AND PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR FAMILIES TO BUILD COMMUNITY, SHARE STORIES, AND RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF OUR CURRENT IMMIGRATION POLICIES. THROUGH THE MISSING MIGRANT PROJECT, COLIBRI'S FLAGSHIP PROJECT, WE WORK WITH FORENSIC SCIENTISTS TO COMPARE INFORMATION FAMILIES PROVIDE WITH UNIDENTIFIED REMAINS RECOVERED ALONG THE US-MEXICO BORDER. WE COLLECT DETAILED MISSING PERSONS REPORTS FROM FAMILIES, AND, WHEN POSSIBLE, DNA SAMPLES. WHEN A POSITIVE MATCH IS MADE, COLIBRI STAFF INFORM FAMILIES THAT THEIR LOVED ONE HAS PERISHED.THE COLIBRI CENTER PROVIDES SUPPORT TO FAMILIES WHOSE LOVED ONES HAVE DISAPPEARED OR DIED. THE CENTER'S FAMILY NETWORK WAS BORN OUT OF THE ISOLATION THAT FAMILIES EXPERIENCE. COMPOUNDING LAYERS OF STIGMA, SHAME, AND BARRIERS HAVE PREVENTED FAMILIES OF DISAPPEARED MIGRANTS LIVING IN THE UNITED STATES FROM BUILDING COMMUNITY WITH EACH OTHER. COLIBRI STAFF CONNECT FAMILIES WITH EACH OTHER THROUGH CLOSED ONLINE GROUPS OR OTHER METHODS AND PRODUCES A QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER FOR FAMILIES THAT INCLUDES TOOLS TO HELP PEOPLE HEAL FROM THE TRAUMA OF NOT KNOWING WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO A FATHER, A DAUGHTER, OR A BROTHER.THE COLIBRI CENTER'S DATA - BOTH IN THE FORM OF MISSING PERSONS REPORTS AND IN THE STORIES OF FAMILIES WHOSE LOVED ONES HAVE DISAPPEARED - IS USED BY RESEARCHERS, POLICY MAKERS, AND EDUCATORS TO HELP DRAW ATTENTION TO THE HUMAN RIGHTS CRISIS ALONG THE US-MEXICO BORDER.
