Dear volunteer lawyers, doctors, paralegals, and interpreters,

We would like a small number of volunteer monitors to join court-approved interviews of Flores class member minors detained at CBP facilities in the Tucson, El Centro, San Diego Sectors on October 03-04, 2019 and the RGV and El Paso CBP Sectors October 10-11, 2019. We are writing to invite lawyers, doctors, paralegals, and interpreters to participate in one or more days of class member interviews. The purpose of these monitoring visits is solely to gather updated information regarding CBP's compliance with the terms of the Flores settlement and previous court Orders that require the humane treatment and prompt processing of minors in Border Patrol custody. To volunteer, please register or sign in to reunify.org, where you can select the dates and locations at which you wish to participate. We encourage volunteers to conduct interviews for at least one full day. two days at various locations close to one another.
