Dismantling Detention | Immigrant Justice Summer Call # 4: How to Funnel Support for Immigrant Justice in Your Community
August 20 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm EDT
When ICE comes to your community, do you know what to do? This summer, Indivisible is giving you a blueprint. Immigrant Justice Summer is a five-call national training series that will level up how you show up for immigrant justice.
Immigrant Justice Summer Call # 4: How to Funnel Support for Immigrant Justice in Your Community
When an ICE surge hits, community support floods in from every dirWhen an ICE surge hits, community support floods in from every direction. Without a system to direct it, that energy scatters. This call trains you on how to build a link tree that functions as your community’s entry point into the immigrant-led response, channeling new people, information, and training and mutual resources directly to where they’re needed on the ground.
On this one-hour national training call, you will:
- Learn what the funnel model looks like in practice: how your group routes community support to the organizations leading the response without creating a parallel structure.
- Get trained on how to build a link tree that captures what people need to plug in, including messaging guidance, mutual aid resources, direct support campaigns for people impacted, and training opportunities for people who want to get involved.
- Hear directly from a group leader who has used this model in a real surge scenario, sharing what they put on their link tree, how they vetted it, and how they kept it current.
You’ll leave with the knowledge and a concrete tool to set up your own link tree and put it in your community’s hands. This is the fourth call in the five-part Immigrant Justice Summer training series, open to all Indivisible members.
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
