<div><strong>Asylum Seeker Mom of 2 Detained by ICE in San Francisco: Support the Family </strong>

</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>On 3rd June 2025, Eliseo P. and his wife Carolina P., arrived at her scheduled immigration check-in in San Francisco, only for Carolina to be abruptly detained and transported to Arizona the same day. Eliseo and their two young children (ages 5 and 10) are now left in shock, grief, and uncertainty.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Carolina, an indigenous Maya K’iche’ woman from rural Guatemala, speaks only her native K’iche’ language and has endured immense hardship, fleeing persecution in her homeland. Seeking refuge, she arrived in the U.S. in January 2024 with her 3 year old child, only to learn that a past attempt to enter in 2013 had unknowingly led to a removal order against her. Carolina has no criminal history and is a pillar for her family and community. She and her family have filed for asylum. 


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Now, ICE has suddenly enforced that old order, tearing her away from her family and imprisoning her in a detention center in Arizona. Separated from her husband and children, she must now fight her legal battle alone, thousands of miles away from those who love and depend on her.


</div>

</div>


<div><strong>The Immediate Crisis </strong>


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div><strong>Legal Battle: </strong>Carolina needs urgent legal representation for her Reasonable Fear Interview—the first step to challenging her deportation. If she passes, she'll be allowed to fight her case before an Immigration Judge, but she needs a lawyer in Arizona immediately.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div><strong>Basic Needs: </strong>With Carolina detained, Eliseo—who is also seeking asylum—must now care for their two children alone. The family struggles to afford rent, food, and necessities.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div><strong>Trauma &amp; Mental Health Support: </strong>The children are crying constantly, struggling to understand why their mother was taken. They need counseling and stability during this traumatic time.


</div>
