Detention Program
The Detention Program, based on a nationally recognized legal service model, serves immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers who are facing deportation at the GEO/ICE immigration detention center in Aurora, Colorado. Since 2000, RMIAN has been working to:

• Empower people to make informed decisions about their legal cases
• Offer a “Know Your Rights” legal orientation presentation to every newly detained person, including potential survivors of human trafficking
• Provide individual intakes with men and women not represented by attorneys
• Refer meritorious cases to volunteer attorneys
• Provide direct legal representation for detained men and women
• Provide pro se assistance to individuals fighting their cases on their own
• Actively monitor conditions at the detention facility to ensure adherence to federal detention policies and respect for human rights
