Answer together
When a neighbor is detained, support can help connect their family with legal resources, based on need and available funds.
Care, with clarity.
The fund brings community contributions together so families facing a crisis can be connected with support. Assistance is considered based on need, urgency, and the resources available.
The Community Defense Fund is a charitable mutual aid initiative, not an insurance product. A contribution does not guarantee assistance, legal representation, or a particular outcome.
The foundation does not provide legal advice. For advice about your situation, speak with a qualified attorney.
Need support?
Reach out to discuss your family’s situation and ask about available resources. Please do not share sensitive immigration or legal information in an initial message.
