Description

The Detention Watch Network (DWN) is a national coalition of organizations and individuals working to educate the public and policy makers about the U.S. immigration detention and deportation system and advocate for humane reform so that all who come to our shores receive fair and humane treatment. We believe that by working together we can effect greater change in the immigration detention system. Our members and supporters include organizations providing services to those in immigration detention and their families, and organizations and individuals advocating on behalf of those in immigration detention. We are lawyers, activists, social workers, national advocates, students, community organizers, faith communities, former detainees, and affected families from around the country. DWN is seeking an INTERN for Winter-Spring 2008. Core Values and Principles: What do We Believe? The United States is a nation of immigrants and refugees, built on the strengths of diverse peoples, cultures, and beliefs, and sustained by the enduring values of fairness, equality, and individual rights. We seek to honor this history and these values.
