How You Can Help
The ICE List is not a passive archive. It’s a living tool meant to be expanded, sharpened, and used. If you’re reading this, you can help. Whether you’re an experienced investigator, a former detainee, a family member, a journalist, a student, or just someone who refuses to look away, there’s work to be done.
Submit Information
Have you encountered an ICE agent, worked inside a detention center, or witnessed a raid? Do you have footage, documents, or names that need to be public? You can submit:
- Agent identities (name, photo, badge number)
- Facility-level abuse (neglect, assault, retaliation)
- FOIA records, contracts, court filings
- Evidence of raids, arrests, or surveillance
Anonymous submissions are welcome. Fabricated submissions are not. Every report is reviewed.
Help Build the Database
We need help expanding and refining the network of agents, facilities, contractors, and programs.
- Research agents through open-source methods (OSINT)
- Find facility histories, contracts, and linked deaths
- Add context to raids, lawsuits, protests, and removals
- Organize and categorize public documents
If you’re good at pattern recognition, data sorting, or just going down rabbit holes, we need you.
Translate, Verify, Maintain
Language should not be a barrier to justice. We want this information accessible across languages and platforms.
- Translate pages into Spanish, Arabic, Haitian Creole, Tagalog, and more
- Fact-check submitted claims
- Monitor broken links and outdated profiles
Distribute the Work
We are not here to hoard information. We want it to spread.
- Share profiles and articles
- Print flyers, posters, or stickers
- Embed data into other platforms or community tools
- Get this information into the hands of people facing deportation and raids
Support the Project
If you can’t volunteer, you can still help.
- Fund hosting and security costs
- Donate research tools and subscriptions
- Signal-boost updates, cases, and calls for help
We are not waiting for permission. We are not asking for access. This project runs on rage, memory, and solidarity. If you’re ready to work, there’s always something to do.
