About the Detention Program
Americans for Immigrant Justice’s Detention Program helps detained immigrants obtain release and fight deportation, so they can be reunited with their families and community. Even though those in immigration detention have only been charged with a civil offense, individuals are criminalized and subjected to inhumane, jail-like conditions. Many of our detained clients have deep ties to the community, and their detention causes incalculable harm to South Florida families and communities. The Detention Program fights for the release of individuals from ICE custody while challenging the systemic and pervasive issues that plague the broader practice of immigration detention.
