Social Justice Committee and Rapid Response Network invite you to join a team of volunteers willing to practice solidarity during ICE encounters in Placer. Rapid Response Network will train and prepare committed people to become Legal Observers to Witness, Accompany and Advocate for our immigrant Neighbors and how to respond and be present during ICE encounters.
This training will provide information on how to:
+ Be a part of the team of “first responders” at the site of an ICE encounter and connect affected families with the resources for social and legal services available to them.
+Document encounters, and help build visibility by giving a real face to deportations. You will gather information to tell the real story about WHO is being affected!
+OR if you don’t want to be a “first responder”, you can join the Accompaniment Team and play a supporting role in assisting families who are affected by raids—they may need rides to appointments, food, help connecting to services, etc
