Sebastián Yatra calls his experience with Disney's “Encanto” a "gift from God.”.

Without access to money, both characters learn about the Freedom for Immigrants hotline and start passing out the number to others in the facility. "We stand with Freedom for Immigrants and urge ICE to restore their hotline immediately." The letter was sent to ICE alongside a cease and desist notice "for blocking Freedom for Immigrants' ICE Pro Bono telephone extension from being accessed nationwide." Actresses Diane Guerrero and Laura Gmez, who played "Maritza" and "Blanca" respectively, were part of the "Orange Is The New Black" cast who signed the letter to ICE. Cynthia Galaz, the director of the organization's national hotline, said the service "allows for communication and community building between those inside and outside of detention."
