The North Bay Rapid Response Network – Sonoma & Napa Counties, is a network of various community groups and organizations in Sonoma and Napa Counties working to create a way for people to respond to fear and anxiety in our community as a result of the increase in immigration enforcement, ICE raids and other attacks against our communities. Our network provides a way for people of goodwill to bear witness, accompany, and protect members of our community who are living through the increase in immigration enforcement and ICE raids.
