Many people and families in the U.S. have had to return to their native countries, either voluntarily or due to deportation. This resource was created to help people prepare so they can make the process as simple and safe as possible, whether they are returning to México, Honduras, El Salvador, or Guatemala.
Nonprofit organization: Serving and defending the rights of the returned and deported
This guide is for people who live with the threat of deportation to Mexico or Central America. Know your rights, learn where to get legal help, and make a plan in case of possible deportation. Download our guide here.
We oppose the detention and deportation of anyone. This guide includes information on know your rights, legal aid and advocacy organizations so that an individual can oppose their removal from the US. The publication of this book should not be seen as an endorsement of deportation. The fact is that every year thousands of people are deported. We created this resource so that those individuals who face deportation can have the information and resources they need for a successful transition.
