## Resource

A seven-year-old girl, Urielle N’Guessan, was unexpectedly detained by ICE just after turning 18 while seeking asylum — shattering her family’s holiday and leaving them in emotional turmoil. Roland N’Guessan, her father, has long relied on Catholic Charities for immigration help, but this sudden separation from his daughters, who’ve lived in the U.S. for over 30 years, highlights the cruel realities faced by immigrant families in St. Louis. Despite following all legal procedures, the family is being forced into a system that feels unjust and impersonal, as authorities push to send Urielle to a facility she’s never seen. Their plea: she’s not a criminal — she’s a child trying to build a future in a country she calls home. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
