First Friends of NJ & NY assign trained volunteers to visit individual immigrants and asylum seekers held in detention in the Elizabeth Detention Center, the Essex County Correctional Facility, the Bergen County Jail and the Hudson County Correction & Rehabilitation Center. Twice a year the organization give each detainee, whether in it's visitation program or not, a Stamp Out Despair (SOD) folder of writing materials to help them contact family members, friends and lawyers. They also maintain a help line which detainees can access to reach out to First Friends. They also offer post-release services such as shelter, transportation and assistance in obtaining benefits for which individuals may be eligible.
