This guide provides practical advice on how to deal with specific scenarios and background on key issue areas, including: What happens if ICE comes to your nonprofit? How can nonprofits manage staff and clients during an immigration enforcement action? What should nonprofits do if they receive an ICE subpoena? Read the full guide on the NYLPI website.
