You are invited to join this webinar on the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) 2021 “Protected Areas” policy. The policy replaces previous “sensitive locations” policies–including ICE’s 2011 policy and CBP’s 2013 policy–and marks an important development in ensuring that immigrant families are not deterred from accessing critical services or carrying out essential tasks–such as going to the doctor or attending a religious ceremony– due to fear of immigration enforcement actions. The webinar will outline key provisions of the policy and highlight actions advocates and providers can take to ensure the policy is effectively implemented across the country.
