Stay Strong, Stay Safe: Vital Support for Senegalese Immigrants
If you’re a Senegalese immigrant facing ICE and not legally here, it’s crucial to stay calm.
Do not open your door, remain silent, and do not sign anything without a lawyer.
Know your rights and seek immediate legal help. Various organizations offer vital support and resources to protect you and your family. Stay informed and prepared.
If You're Here Illegally
Stay Calm: Do not panic if ICE approaches.
Do Not Open Your Door: ICE must have a signed warrant by a judge to enter your home.
Exercise Your Right to Remain Silent: Outside of providing your name, you do not have to answer any questions.
Do Not Sign Anything: Without consulting a lawyer, avoid signing any documents.
