About This Cause
Blessed Bishop John Baptist Scalabrini founded the Roman Catholic Scalabrini Congregation in 1887 to serve Italians migrating to the Americas. For the next seventy years, Scalabrini missionaries established parishes, schools, hospitals, migrant service centers, cultural centers, orphanages, nursing homes, cooperatives, migrant associations, and service committees. During the 1960s, the congregation extended its mission to all migrants and expanded its outreach worldwide. The Scalabrini International Migration Network (SIMN) is an umbrella organization established in 2007. Inspired by Blessed Bishop John Baptist Scalabrini, the missions have spread in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, and Asia. SIMN embraces 250+ grassroots Scalabrini entities with a presence in 32 countries around the world. SIMN’s vision is to foster a leading global network that advocates for the dignity and rights of migrants, refugees, internally displaced people, and seafarers worldwide.
