Today, we prepare to protect our community by learning how to respond when ICE terrorizes our neighbors. This isn't charity, it's community self-defense against a system designed to separate families and criminalize people for seeking safety.

Every day, our immigrant neighbors live with the trauma of potential raids, deportations, and detention. Their grief is our grief. Their safety is our safety. When we build mutual aid networks, we create the infrastructure of care that our government refuses to provide.

Today’s Action:

• Sign up for NoMi Neighbor Network’s December 10th training here

• Block out time in your calendar to attend this crucial session

• Invite others who share your commitment to community protection

• Begin thinking about what skills and resources you can offer your neighbors

This training will teach you how to respond when ICE shows up in our community, how to know your rights and help others know theirs, and how to build sustainable networks of mutual support. Knowledge is power, and shared knowledge is collective power.

Our grief for families torn apart by deportation fuels our determination to create sanctuary in our own communities. We cannot rely on politicians or institutions to protect the most vulnerable, we must protect each other.
