The purpose of this manual is to guide families through the option of preparing a Family Emergency Plan for the provisional care of minors who remain in the United States when the parents are detained or deported. This is a guide that offers basic orientation about topics contained in the LCYC (Legal Counsel for Youth and Children) – Immigrant Safety Plan for Youth and Children or in Spanish: Plan de Inmigrantes para la Seguridad de Jóvenes y Niños. It can be shared via a “Group Conversation,” facilitated by a natural leader, other parents or a community promoter, etc. The guide can be offered solely as an informational piece, Personal Version (without the need for a Group Conversation). It can also be used as a resource to put together a Family Emergency Plan and aid in the collection of important documents.
