ICE Protocols For Your Congregation With Episcopal City Mission
ICE raids are increasing around the country with little regard to entering previously protected spaces (i.e. faith institutions and schools). Many congregations are working to understand how they can best protect their communities against ICE. Join us and Hannah Hafter from Episcopal City Mission to hear an overview of their newly released guide for how to best protect your congregation from ICE, and to understand the risks of various actions in support of our immigrant communities. This meeting will be from 12:30-1:30 (note the change from the usual time).
In addition, we will pilot an experimental pre-gathering “Office Hours” from 12-12:30. This is an optional, informal time for more open conversations with each other to support you in building your teams, problem solving, and asking more broad questions about immigration justice organizing in your congregations. We hope this can address some of the questions and ideas that we don’t always have time for in regular meeting times. You can RSVP for both times on the regular RSVP form.
