Haitians who lost deportation protection need help now.
YounPouLòt provides emergency cash, legal defense, and safe-landing support for Haitian families facing removal — funded and run by the community itself.
In June 2026, the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to end Temporary Protected Status for Haiti. Roughly 300,000 people are affected. Work permits are set to expire and courts continue to issue conflicting orders — the legal status of TPS holders is changing week to week, which is exactly why direct, fast support matters right now.
A federal court pauses the termination just before it takes effect.

The Supreme Court rules the termination isn't reviewable by courts, allowing it to move forward.
Jul 2026
TPS-based work permits are set to expire — even as new court orders keep shifting the timeline.
What this means for families
Loss of legal work authorization, putting jobs and income at risk
Renewed risk of detention and deportation to an unstable country
Families split apart, often with U.S.-born children left behind
