This session provides a concise overview of the need for ICE response protocols, followed by practical guidance for developing your own. Participants will learn who to involve—from legal and safety experts to community partners—and how to keep protocols non-political and centered on safety. The workshop will cover best practices for responding in high-stress situations, including clear, supportive language for interacting with clients, agents, and customers. Key considerations, such as supporting individuals who choose to shelter in place and maintaining access to essential services like food and veterinary care, will also be addressed. Time will be included for Q&A to explore real-world scenarios and strengthen preparedness.
