You have rights!

Everyone, including undocumented immigrants, living in the U.S. has certain basic rights under the Constitution. If Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) or other law enforcement officers approach you at home, on the street, or anywhere else, it is important that you know and practice your basic rights.

Have you been detained by immigration or have an immigration related emergency? Call NAKASEC’s bilingual Korean/English hotline to get support: 1-844-500-3222
