Trips to Elizabeth Detention Center (EDC)  will resume as soon as they are permitted in 2024. Please check this page for updates  or email Marsh Drege to be notified. 

 

On selected Saturday mornings, Seafarers International House organizes trips to the Elizabeth Detention Center (EDC) to visit asylum seekers to give them hope by lending an ear and by letting them know, they are not forgotten, even when their cases take months or even years to be determined.

 

Space is limited. If you are interested in participating, please send an email inquiry to Marsh Drege.
