CASA AlternaCompas at the Gates of ICE
We walk with people targeted by the immigration system. We stand with them during ICE check-ins, court dates, and other required appointments. We offer steady presence, care, and support in moments of fear and uncertainty.
People targeted by the immigration system
From casaalterna.org/our-work/accompaniment-faithful-resistance ↗About this program
We share know-your-rights information. We connect people with legal support. We work to prevent detention whenever possible.
We believe no one should be held in detention or torn from their community. When rights are violated, we document and report it.
We stand with people in systems that separate families and try to push people out of sight.
