To better support the diverse needs of residents and local businesses, the City of Tacoma has launched a dedicated Immigration Resources webpage. This new digital hub provides centralized access to information and resources for our community, including Tacoma’s immigrant and refugee communities.
This work follows the Tacoma City Council’s adoption of Resolution 41844 on January 13, 2026. Brought forward by District 4 Council Member Sandesh Sadalge – and co-sponsored by At-Large Council Member Olgy Diaz and At-Large Council Member Latasha Palmer – the resolution directed Interim City Manager Hyun Kim to enhance information sharing and outreach so that all community members have access to vital resources.
The new webpage aggregates publicly available information into one accessible location. Features of the new resource hub include:
- Links to immigration-related and other resources from various local, state, and national organizations.
- Background on City Council legislation supporting the immigrant community, including the City’s advocacy regarding the use of for-profit detention centers.
- Direct contact information for State and Federal legislative delegation members, as well as updates on State immigration-related legislative activity.
The City recognizes that the landscape of immigration policy and resources changes frequently. While this webpage is not an exhaustive list of all services, it serves as a curated gateway to assist community members. The City is committed to updating the page periodically as new information and resources become available.
Community members can view the new resources at tacoma.gov/immigrationresources.
