As a paralegal on NIJC's Immigrant Legal Defense Project, I'm part of a team that offers direct representation to the immigrant community and I'm also the coordinator for pro bono legal volunteers. Earlier this year, we held clinics for people who had recently arrived in our communities and had received Temporary Protected Status, and helped them apply for work permits and pursue a better life in this country. This is possible because of you. Thank you for your unwavering support of immigrants and people seeking safety! Together we will continue to make a difference and create a more just, welcoming, and compassionate world for all. Watch my quick message about how your support has changed countless lives this past year.
