About the Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network (BIJAN)
We are a community network of individuals, faith communities, and other activist groups working to reduce the escalating harm of our immigration system in the current political context.
- Get help: We provide accompaniment, which can include support in court or at ICE check-ins, legal referrals, fundraising for bond or legal fees, letters of support from the community, rides for families to visit loved ones in detention, and logistical assistance with paperwork or bond payments, and more. We also help with housing, transportation, and other immediate needs of people released on bond who have no other resources in the community.
