Here I Pod is a podcast series from ELCA Advocacy bringing together voices of faith-based advocates caring for all people and creation. In Episode 5 you’ll hear from faith-based advocates meeting our current moment by supporting immigrants and refugees during a time of rapid shifts and changes. Host: Regina Q. Banks of Lutheran Office of Public Policy - California.

Through this guide, AMMPARO seeks to educate congregations and others about their rights under the law to help them better prepare for encounters with immigration officials.

Lutheran Social Services of the Southwest offer 3 steps you can take today to stand with refugees in Arizona.

This webinar will offer some basics on the US immigration system, "Know Your Rights" information, and practical suggestions for ministry leaders when an undocumented person or recent migrant comes seeking their accompaniment in navigating next steps to address their immigration status, as well as how to handle a situation if ICE comes to their church or ministry.

In times of heightened uncertainty, our immigrant neighbors need support and accompaniment. The ELCA’s AMMPARO ministry offers critical tools to understand and assert rights during encounters with law enforcement or ICE. This guide includes Red Cards, family preparedness plans, and multilingual resources to help families stay informed and safe.
