Brandeis students to conduct rights sessions at ICE detention center
Prof. Enid Trucios-Haynes leads a training session in preparation for a visit to the Boone County Jail.
On Aug. 12, fellows from the Brandeis Human Rights Advocacy Program will put advocacy in action.
They're heading to the Boone County Jail's U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Northern Kentucky, where they'll meet with detainees to conduct a "Know Your Rights" presentation and individual intake interviews.
The trip is part of a program organized by the National Immigrant Justice Center.
Prof. Enid Trucios-Haynes, co-founder of the Human Rights Advocacy Program, has led these trips since 2011.
The program "works actively with other non-profits and stakeholders in the community to advance the human rights of immigrants, refugees and noncitizens," according to its mission statement.
The Know Your Rights presentations offer an opportunity for students and community volunteers who are interested in immigration law to see the immigration system first-hand.
