Volunteer at Interfaith Immigration Court Vigils

Thank you for your interest in supporting the Immigration Court Vigils. Please join us!

Our purpose is to create a sacred space and corridor of community welcome outside ICE immigration courts which have become sites of danger and fear for immigrants accessing due process. We offer interfaith chaplaincy and pastoral care, accompaniment, music, art, connection, and beloved community. We also bear witness and provide connection to rapid response and other supports available. 

Follow these steps:

1) Complete this form to let us know your availability and contact info. For security purposes, this information will only be shared to vigil organizers. Note: If you don't use Signal already, Download Signal here. After you complete this form, we will add you to a Signal group containing all volunteers.

2Add your name on the Calendar for the shifts you can attend in San Francisco or Concord. We go to both locations every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

3) Expect to hear from a leader 2 days before the shift, on Signal to confirm and prepare.
