Free Gladis Yolanda Chavez Pineda – A Mother, Grandmother & Community Leader Detained by ICE
We demand the immediate release of Gladis Yolanda Chavez Pineda (A 208-276-014), a long-time Chicago resident, loving mother and grandmother, and a dedicated community leader, who was unjustly detained during a routine ISAP check-in on June 4, 2025.
On June 4, 2025, Gladis Yolanda Chavez Pineda was detained during a surprise check-in at the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) Chicago office (2245 S Michigan Ave), despite full compliance with her supervision requirements and wearing an ankle monitor.
Gladis has been living in the U.S. for over 10 years while actively pursuing asylum. An immigration judge found her to pose no public safety threat and allowed her to remain in the community. She has no criminal record.
Gladis is a devoted mother and grandmother who works in construction and spends her time supporting others through her leadership in Organized Communities Against Deportations (OCAD). She has mentored countless members and continues to be a source of strength and care.
Detaining Gladis is unnecessary, harmful, and inhumane. Her case is a clear example of someone who should be granted discretion—not punishment.
We urge ICE to immediately release Gladis and stop targeting individuals with deep ties to our communities.
Let’s stand with Gladis and say: No more family separation. No more detentions, no more deportations!

El 4 de junio de 2025, Gladis Yolanda Chávez Pineda fue detenida durante un registro sorpresa en la oficina de Chicago del Programa de Comparecencia con Supervisión Intensiva (ISAP) (2245 S Michigan Ave), a pesar de cumplir con todos sus requisitos de supervisión y de llevar un grillete electrónico.
Gladis lleva más de 10 años viviendo en Estados Unidos mientras solicita asilo activamente. Un juez de inmigración determinó que no representaba una amenaza para la seguridad pública y le permitió permanecer en la comunidad. No tiene antecedentes penales.
Gladis es una madre y abuela dedicada que trabaja en la construcción y dedica su tiempo a apoyar a otros a través de su liderazgo en Comunidades Organizadas Contra las Deportaciones (OCAD). Ha sido mentora de innumerables miembros y sigue siendo una fuente de fortaleza y apoyo.
Detener a Gladis es innecesario, perjudicial e inhumano. Su caso es un claro ejemplo de alguien a quien se le debe otorgar discreción, no castigo.
Instamos a ICE a que libere inmediatamente a Gladis y deje de perseguir a personas con profundos vínculos con nuestras comunidades. Apoyemos a Gladis y digamos: ¡No más separación familiar! ¡No más detenciones, no más deportaciones!
Firma ahora para exigir la liberación de Gladis.
