Immigrant Defense Project operates within the legal services field, focusing on the intersection of immigration and criminal justice. It seeks to secure fairness for immigrants charged or convicted of crimes by reducing the immigration consequences of those encounters and by working to transform deportation laws and policies. Based in New York City, the organization educates and advises immigrants, their criminal defenders, and other advocates to inform decision-making and strategy. The group serves a small to mid-sized team, focusing its efforts in New York state. A notable recent development is the February 2026 launch of New York ICE Collusion Watch, an interactive map tracking patterns of collusion between law enforcement and ICE/CBP across the state.
