IDP conducts Train-the-Trainer Workshops to prepare advocates, organizers, and allies to give Know-Your-Rights presentations to clients and community members.
Be Informed: what is ICE, how do they operate, and what are your rights during an encounter with them?
In March and April 2023, the Immigrant Defense Project and the Surveillance Resistance Lab hosted a two-part train-the-trainer series about ICE surveillance, policing, and what to do during an encounter with ICE. The trainings are aimed to prepare advocates, organizers and allies to give Know Your Rights (KYR) information to clients and community members.
Part One gives an overview of how ICE operates and lays out the ways ICE uses policing and surveillance tools to locate, target, and track noncitizens.
Part Two explains Know Your Rights information in different scenarios. It helps participants learn and discuss what to do during ICE encounters.
