Immigrant advocates are preparing for President-elect Donald Trump’s second term by training community members on how to protect themselves from his promise of mass deportations.

Summary

Immigrant advocacy groups nationwide are preparing communities for mass deportations promised by Donald Trump.

Workshops, legal clinics, and know-your-rights sessions are teaching immigrants to protect themselves, remain silent, and prepare legal and financial plans in case of arrest.

Advocates are urging eligible immigrants to apply for legal status before enforcement ramps up and are addressing fears among mixed-status families and U.S. citizens.

While experienced from Trump’s first term, advocates emphasize readiness to counter expected policies targeting immigrant communities. Fear and uncertainty remain widespread.
