If you're interested in volunteering for an important task that makes a huge difference, and are willing to face intense situations to help others, this opportunity is right for you.
Force for Immigrant Rights & Empowerment (FIRE) is coming out with a hotline that people can call if they need a witness when they come into contact with local law enforcement or immigration agents.
Volunteers will be notified and asked to go to the location the event is occurring, and will act as a witness to help prevent abuse. They will then report what happened, helping to ensure that legal procedures are followed properly.
