Volunteer: Rapid Response Network!

Join our Rapid Response network and help us DEFEND OUR COMMUNITY! Our rapid response network is made up of students, activists and neighbors who respond to and monitor ICE activity in our community. To join the squad, you must undergo a 2 hour training session, following which you will be sorted into on-call teams. Each team is on call once every 6 weeks, but the time commitment is flexible - we understand you have lives. The only expectation is you are extra attentive when on-call and will mobilize when you’re available. Additionally, you will be expected to attend team meetings and further trainings on a non-regular basis. If you’re able, now is the time to step up and stand in solidarity with Casa San Jose and your immigrant neighbors.
