Hospitality &

Presence


 

We accompany immigrants at Stewart Detention Center and their loved ones through hospitality, visitation, support, and advocacy.

“You have all been like angels to us. To be listened to without judgment and with intention, giving me the space to vent, cry, be upset, and a reason to hope, has made me feel that I am not alone in this, that my family member is not alone.” — Anna

Get Involved

We invite supporters to join us in this work by volunteering at our hospitality house in Lumpkin (Spanish not required), visiting a person detained at SDC (We have a few English speakers on our list), answering our helpline (Spanish required), participating in our advocacy events and campaigns, hosting an event to educate people about immigration detention, and sending a card or letter of support to a person at SDC.

“When I got out of that place, it was like finding God again.”

A visitation story

In early 2022, Alejandra fled her home country in South America. Members of her family had been killed by guerrillas. Alejandra had been wounded twice during attempted kidnappings. She scraped together enough money to get to Mexico, where she headed to the border to apply for asylum. 

Detention steals the dignity of immigrants. With your donation, you give a little it of that dignity back.
