ICE ENCOUNTERS & FAMILY PREPAREDNESS
Every person in the United States has constitutional rights, no matter your immigration status.
It is important to know and use these rights to keep yourself and your loved ones safe. One way to be prepared is to create a family plan — decide in advance who will care for your children, keep important documents in a safe place, and know who to call if you need legal support. Canal Alliance can support you through this difficult planning process. We also offer Know Your Rights educational materials and workshops that give you the tools to protect yourself, your family, and your community. By learning your rights and planning ahead, you can respond with confidence and help keep your family safe.
Whether you want to learn about your rights or make a plan to prepare your family for an immigration emergency, we are here to help.
