Illinois Community for Displaced Immigrants (ICDI) is a faith-based nonprofit organization made up of staff and volunteers from more than 17 faith traditions. ICDI responds to the suffering of individuals and communities impacted by immigration detention, deportation, and post-detention. The organization provides essential goods, housing, and wraparound support to asylum seekers, while also advocating for immigrant justice at the local, state, and national levels.
For it is in giving that we receive.
