Defending Immigrant Rights 101:

Since 1996, more than 1.5 million people have been deported and thousands of families have been separated
Collier County just signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Immigration for local police to act like immigration agents
In Florida there is a 77% increase in the number of immigrant arrests – the second highest in the country
There is $1.38 billion in the federal budget to detain immigrants with a capacity to hold 27,500 each day
This training will help the community learn more about the detention and deportation system and how to act if a community member is detained or facing deportation. We will give an overview of deportation process, show you how to identify who is most at risk for immigration arrest and discuss ways to advocate, organize, act, and defend our communities and families.
