"Today, what we did is, we did a drill of how to protect if the deportation knock at the door of your house. It’s something like that. And also, some families came to sign documents for power of attorney to protect their children."

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Nora Sandigo, Nora Sandigo Children Foundation:
"I know so many families are alone. They don’t have any relatives. They don’t know what to do in case that something happened to their children. And it’s a way to protect the children from the system. We don’t know what will happen eventually, and we need to prevent that situation."

"I think whatever we do, whatever I have been doing my whole life has been, has been good for the human being. Good for the children that came to my life, that knock at my door one day. And, it’s beautiful. I’m just blessed for that opportunity that Jesus gave to me."

STORYLINE:
Several Immigrant families with their small children went Sunday to the house of an immigration advocate they’ve known for years in Miami.

After having lunch at a large rectangular table, they listened carefully to Nora Sandigo, a Nicaraguan activist that arrived to the U.S. in 1988 and has been assisting immigrants since then.

For the group at Sandigo’s home, and for millions here illegally or with temporary legal status, the start of Trump’s second term as president on Monday comes with a feeling that their time in the United States may end soon.

Sandigo gave the group of roughly 20 a demonstration of how to respond if immigration officers knock on their door. 

Sandigo has volunteered to be the guardian for more than 2,000 children in 15 years, including at least 30 since December.
