Download Toolkit

Detention centers and immigration enforcement field offices are rapidly expanding while safe and legal pathways for immigrants and forcibly displaced people to enter and remain in the U.S. are shutting down. Faith communities are on the front lines responding to this crisis. This toolkit provides resources and a guide for faith communities to challenge the expansion of detention facilities and direct public attention to the legal abuses and overreach that happen within them.
