Volunteers must be willing to talk to law enforcement officers to verify what agency they are with. Additional tasks may include recording law enforcement activity.
You do not have to speak Spanish, but ICE Chasers must be allies and U.S. citizens or residents for safety. Individuals willing to become ICE Chasers will receive ICE Free Zone and other training. Individuals who want to volunteer with ICE Chasers must fill out the form below.
