Rapid Response teams
volunteers answer alerts about possible ICE or immigration enforcement activity. They show up quickly to verify what’s happening, document encounters, and connect impacted families to legal and community resources.
Volunteer to accompany immigrants to appointments
Accompaniment team volunteers go with immigrants and their families to court hearings, ICE check-ins, or other stressful appointments. They provide moral support, language assistance, and help ensure rights are respected.

As a business how can I help?
One of the most impactful ways businesses can help is by sharing trusted resources with staff and patrons and showing how they can get involved. You can also make your business a safer space by clearly separating private and public areas so everyone knows where they are welcome. WA Neighborhood Defense has created a toolkit to help every Washington business understand its rights and protect employees and patrons in the event of an ICE encounter.
