Side Quest: July 6 Know Your Rights & Extended Rapid Response

@Adri_Martinez found this Immigration Court Observation and Awareness Project Court online. It would be good to look through to see if it contains accompaniment guides, or if there is anything else we can take away from it.

At the last working meeting, @Adri_Martinez, @Englishpete08, and I started working on an onboarding for people who want to learn more about KYR/Family Preparedness and start participating in outreach. Ideally, we would either record this and post it on YouTube or record the first session and post the recording. That way, no one has to wait for our orientation date to learn/participate.

We wanted to do a tiered approach so that a single training event could be held for multiple engagement levels. It would respect people’s time, lessen the time commitment for us (all in one event vs multiple), while also making a clear pathway for deeper involvement if people stick around.

The idea is to create a funnel that covers the following topics:

  • Background/Political Context and the WCU Framework
  • Know Your Rights (Core Content)
  • Family Planning
  • Canvassing KYR
  • Trainer the KYR Trainer
  • Presenter - Leading Workshops

This will probably take 2 hours to cover, but if people want to sign up to present at churches, they should have the full context.

Possibly, after these events, we could schedule the ongoing support and debriefing meetings. This would result in 3+ hour long meetings, but I think with how we work, two long meetings a month are easier than 4+ shorter ones.

You can see our progress here.

Action Items
We are no where close to being done with the onboarding, although we did start with a general outline here. We will continue working on it at the next working meeting, but anyone is welcome to start filling in the gaps!
