Drivers Needed
Our SMSP Immigration Support Team is in need of volunteers with a valid driver’s license to assist undocumented families to and from ICE appointments, doctors appointments, and/or other obligations.
Drivers would be added to an email group, to be contacted only when an individual or family is in need of a ride. If you are interested or want to learn more, please contact Amy Ketner.
