Make a Donation
Our ability to provide exceptional free and low-cost services depends on maintaining our operating costs and meeting projected expenses. You can make a secure donation online.
Become a Speaker
We need people to speak about our work at a variety of activities and events, like trainings, outreach and educational talks, on topics such as “Know Your Rights,” among others. We will train speakers and provide all materials.
Are you a Writer?
Volunteers can help us preserve and spread the stories of our clients’ successes, so we can share them with our supporters and the community.
We need Volunteer Attorneys
Professional assistance is always needed to help obtain citizenship and green cards, represent unaccompanied minors, attend bond hearings, and more. We provide training and workshops for interested volunteer attorneys.
Office Work
There are a variety of skilled office tasks that always need doing: data entry, file organizing and scanning, preparing letters, and more.
Translators
We work with clients who speak many languages, and volunteers who can speak and/or write in different languages are critical to our services. (Written documents can be done remotely.)
