Resources help please. ICE came for my son's friend today [View all]

My son's friend and his father are from Libya and have been here in NC for years with some kind of (unknown to me) asylum status.
Today ICE came to their door but couldn't get in. Of course, his family is now terrified including his three younger sisters all of whom are American citizens.

I'm looking for resources that may be helpful to forward to my son and then on to his friend's family. Thanks for any help you can give with this.
