Interfaith Committee for Detained Immigrants
The Interfaith Committee for Detained Immigrants (ICDI) is a non-profit organization based in Cicero, IL, dedicated to providing direct services, housing, and support to newly arrived migrants in the United States. Founded in 2007 by immigration lawyer Royal Berg and Catholic Sisters of Mercy Sr. JoAnn Persch and Sr. Pat Murphy, ICDI aims to address the challenges faced by immigrants, including family separations due to deportation, by advocating for an end to detention and unjust immigration policies.
Through their essential programs, ICDI offers case management, housing, and clothing to help migrants navigate the US systems and rebuild their lives. With the support of volunteers and sponsors, ICDI strives to create a world where all immigrants are treated with dignity and compassion. Their work has resulted in numerous success stories, including reuniting families and providing assistance to individuals fleeing persecution and violence in their home countries.
