The purpose of this training is to teach what our legal rights are during interactions with law enforcement, how to ID ICE, and how to respond when you see an ICE raid happening. Our goals are to document, support our community members who are being targeted, and de-escalate as much as we can to reduce potential violence from officers. These steps are based off historical successes, tactics currently being used in cities like LA and Chicago, and actions our local immigration organizations are taking. Every community is different so these steps and procedures can vary according to where you are and how much support you have on scene.

You can RSVP on our encrypted form here so we can send you the link to the training and the written materials or click the zoom link provided in the details section at 3pm on December 28th!

This training is virtual only and presented by We Keep Us Safe: El Pueblo Unido Contra ICE. We Keep Us Safe is a grassroots initiative to help the metro Denver area organize proactively and effectively to protect our community members from being illegally and inhumanely kidnapped by ICE. We are developing a hub of resources and best practices targeted towards the Denver area, but many of the resources are statewide. We are educating and activating community members through canvassing, training, and outreach. Our goal is to support interested volunteers across the Metro Denver area in building community and solidarity–and to support volunteers in effectively self-organizing in the face of state violence.
