Metro Area Detentions in May 2026

Detentions continue to happen in community and after interactions with local law enforcement.

A reminder: if you are detained by ICE, remember your rights: 

You have the right to ask to speak to your lawyer before signing any paperwork you are presented with. It is always advisable to know your options before you sign a document in detention!

For more information about what happens after a detention, please take a look at the People’s Guide to the NW Detention Center, created by our incredible partners at VOZ.

Students grantmakers from:

• *Roosevelt HS Philanthropy Group, 

• Alliance HS Leadership Class, 

• McDaniel HS Business Launch Program, and

partnered with Schnitzer Cares Foundation to fundraise, and interview organizations working in social issues they cared about. All 4 of these student lead group chose to fund PIRC as a grantee for our work in the community!

 We were so touched by the opportunity to meet these students, share about our work, and hear the reasons they chose to donate their hard earned money to PIRC. Thank you to the students, teachers, and Schnitzer Cares for investing in us!
