The Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) has identified several resources for families:

Parents/guardians can identify a “standby guardian” to care for their child if they are detained or deported, by completing this Maryland Judiciary form and providing a copy to schools, health care providers, and family members.
 
Families trying to locate someone who has already been detained, may use the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainee locator.

The Maryland Immigration Advocates Network

Several immigration organizations have provided guidance related to preparing for and/or responding to immigration action.
