A national campaign sending messages of hope and dignity to immigrant communities

Con Amor Always is a national, community-based card-making campaign led by Touching Land and re-created in partnership with the Soma Mutual Aid Collective, rooted in the belief that learning begins with community care.

Through handwritten words and drawings, people come together to send messages of hope and solidarity to immigrants. Each card is a small act of connection that helps remind someone on the other side of systems of detention, oppression, invisibility and displacement that they are seen, valued, and not alone.

How the Campaign Works

Con Amor, Always: runs in two-month campaign cycles.

Every two months, the campaign focuses on a different immigrant community, such as detained families and children, immigrant farmworkers, deported veterans, delivery workers and others navigating the immigration system.

During each cycle, people across the country are invited to gather with friends, classrooms, or community groups to create cards together.

Participants are guided by an educational toolkit that includes Touching Land’s unique somatic learning practices, simple body-centered reflections that help people slow down, connect to their own experiences, and engage more deeply with the realities facing immigrant communities.

You then MAIL us the letters and we make sure your letters of hope and joy reach the recipient!

Through these embodied practices, participants explore migration, justice, and belonging not only through information, but through reflection, presence, and shared humanity. The toolkit also offers ways to continue practicing solidarity within our everyday lives and local communities.
