December 8, 2020

On December 7, Global Refuge officially relaunched LIRSConnect, a space for Global Refuge to share news and resources with our community. The platform has two parts: an external supporter hub that offers opportunities for Global Refuge supporters to volunteer, advocate, educate, and more, and a private, password-protected area that can be used to securely share data and resources with our affiliates.

Learn more about what LIRSConnect has to offer below!
