Support reinstating CIVIC's immigrant visitation program at West County jail

Political StatementsGovernance

Resolution 21-18

In Plain English

Community Initiatives for Visiting Immigrants in Confinement (CIVIC) previously ran a program helping detained immigrants connect with family and legal aid at the West County jail. The program was suspended at some point. If approved, the city formally asks county officials to restore CIVIC's access to visit detainees and operate their support hotline.
