Register On-Line: https://uuchurch.flocknote.com/signup/248312

Join us for an important and timely presentation on community-based immigration monitoring from the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. This session will focus on what is commonly called “ICE Watch” or “Migra Watch” — community efforts to observe and document the activities of federal immigration enforcement agencies (i.e.U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement(ICE).
Please note: This is not a “Know Your Rights” training. Instead the presentation will explore:
How to identify immigration agents


How to distinguish ICE from local police or other law enforcement


What community members should and should not do if they encounter immigration enforcement activity


How to document responsibly and safely without interfering


Participants will gain a clearer understanding of the visual cues, jurisdictional differences, and practical boundaries involved in community monitoring efforts. The emphasis is on awareness, discernment, and responsible action — not escalation.  This training is especially valuable for those who want to show up thoughtfully and effectively in moments of community concern.
All are welcome.
