Meet Alex, a resilient 9-year-old who just arrived in Boston with his determined mother Marie, seeking a better future. They're in an emergency shelter, one of many shelters they've been in. Marie left Haiti for a more certain future for her son.

We met Marie during a legal ...clinic at their shelter, where many families are striving to join us as neighbors. However, resources are stretched thin, leaving children like Alex without needed documentation. You can make a difference!

We were deeply saddened by the news of the passing of Tony Rodriguez, a former volunteer at Rian and a passionate advocate for immigrants. Tony's generosity of spirit knew no bounds, and he dedicated countless hours to immigrant organizations, always ready to lend a helping hand.

One ...of Tony's remarkable acts of kindness was when he assisted a joint Rian Immigration Legal Services and Resource & Support Serivices client and her two daughters during a moment of crisis. They faced sudden eviction, and Tony didn't hesitate to assist. He loaded boxes and drove the moving truck because he wanted to be sure they had a safe place to call home.

Tony's legacy is a shining example of the difference one person can make in the lives of others. He will be deeply missed by all of us at Rian, our thoughts are with his friends & family during this difficult time. May his kind and giving spirit continue to inspire us all.

Tomorrow our friend Brian O’ Donovan will be laid to rest. We are deeply saddened by Brian’s recent passing and are heartbroken for his family, friends and the whole Irish community. He was one of a kind - a true gentleman and friend, a family man, an expert and passionate advocate for ...bringing Celtic music to the masses. He was always willing to lend a helping hand, and brought great joy to everyone who met and knew him. From our Solas celebrations, to our Black and Green event, from being the voice in the video when we changed our name to the Rian Immigrant Center, to participating in our Irish Community Conversations on Black Lives Matter in 2020, Brian was a constant supporter of Rian (IIC/IIIC) throughout the years. A light has gone out in the Boston community and we are all heartbroken. But Brian’s legacy will live on and he will be in our hearts forever. We offer our sincere condolences to his loving wife Lindsay, his children Aoife, Ciaran, Aidan and Nuala, his grandchildren, siblings and extended family. May he Rest in Peace.
