This two-hour workshop introduces participants to the key sources of immigration data, with a focus on detention statistics.

Professor Austin Kocher walks through where to find reliable data, how to clean and analyze it, and techniques for turning complex numbers into clear visualizations that communicate with broader audiences. Whether you're a researcher, advocate, journalist, or curious learner, you'll leave with practical tools for making sense of enforcement data.
