Training on ICE Enforcement

By immigrationprof

Raids, Detention, & Deportation:

A Tele-Training on ICE Enforcement

WHAT:   A National Tele-Training on ICE Enforcement, Detention, and Deportation.  We will provide step-by-step information about what communities and families can do when a loved one is detained, especially within the first 24 hours. We will also discuss how you can protect yourself from future raids. We will provide facts about the ICE detention and deportation system as well as flyers and other resources.

WHEN:   Friday March 9th, 2007, 3 pm EST

HOW:      The call is free (aside from individual long distance charges). To register, go to www.detentionwatchnetwork.org. We will send out the call-in details and materials in advance of the call. Because of limitations on the number of participants, please register by Wednesday, March 7th. For questions, please contact Andrea Black, ablack@detentionwatchnetwork.org

WHO:     Detention Watch Network; (DWN) is a coalition of organizations and individuals around the country working to educate the public, media and policy makers about the US detention and deportation system and advocate for reform. Many of our members have been working locally on these issues for years and are collaborating to bring national attention to this abusive system. We are deeply concerned about the exploding enforcement in our communities that leads to the ever-increasing detention and deportation of our friends and families. We want to share information, tools, and strategies we have gathered to support the critical on-the-ground work of local organizers fighting immigration enforcement at workplaces, jails, and homes.
