The purpose of this toolkit is to help you understand the various pieces that make up the massive deportation machine, and to give you the tools to dismantle it. Local authorities need to protect and serve their communities, not criminalize them; and local governments need to invest in the well-being of their residents, not in building jails. It is time for us to hold them accountable. This toolkit is not a one size fits all resource. It is designed to give you the tools to begin to build your local campaign, while taking into account the unique aspects of the locality and community you are working in.
