This presentation will provide practical information to empower both immigrants and allies. A caseworker from Berkshire Immigrant Center (BIC) will explain the key legal rights of anyone interacting with immigration enforcement agents, including the role of warrants and how to interpret them. They also will clarify the legal boundaries around bystander support and what to do if someone is detained. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of recent changes to immigration enforcement practices and concrete steps that families can take to prepare for emergencies. Please bring your questions, as there will be time for Q&A after the presentation.
