Legal Services

Are you an attorney or a law student that is looking

for meaningful pro bono work or legal experience?

 

The Refugee Children Center can use your help!

Unlike defendants in the criminal justice system, immigrants facing deportation in immigration court are not provided free attorneys by the government.

 

Unrepresented immigrants face the insurmountable challenge of navigating the complex immigration system alone and are far more likely to lose their cases than those who can obtain attorneys. The need for pro bono legal representation far exceeds that which The Refugee Children Center is able to provide to our participants. 

 

There are also opportunities to get involved in a more limited capacity,

such as volunteering at pro se workshops.
