In light of troubling reports about immigration enforcement activities across the country, it is important to know your rights and be aware of available resources. One key resource is what’s commonly known as “rapid response networks.” These networks typically verify immigration enforcement activities in their local communities and share information about confirmed incidents. In this post, you’ll find information about trustworthy rapid response networks across the country. (Note: If you know of a network that is missing from this list, please consider commenting below.) We encourage you to visit each organization’s website for additional resources. Many of these organizations not only offer support through rapid response networks but also provide resources for DACA renewal assistance, legal services, family preparedness plans, Know Your Rights information, and more.
