The ReadyNow! app for immigrants detained by ICE is a resource recommended by the #NOKINGS Movement. It was created by Human Rights First (HRF).

ReadyNow! is a free, secure, multi-lingual mobile app designed to help immigrants prepare for possible detention and act quickly in moments of crisis. This app allows you to send one-click emergency alerts via SMS to pre-selected contacts; personalize emergency plans for childcare, medical needs, and legal support; and share key information with National Immigration Legal Response Alliance (NILRA), a national network of pro bono immigration attorneys, if faced with arrest.

The #NOKINGS website offers resources, tips, and tricks for anyone attending a protest. They suggest legal immigrants have their documents with them and have this app installed in case of an emergency.

While ReadyNow! was designed with the safety and security of its users at its core, no mobile app is completely without risk. If you have questions about privacy or security, review the FAQ page to learn more or email HRF at readynow@humanrightfirst.org.
