The Immigration Clinic by the Numbers

Maximize Your Impact at the Immigration Clinic.

The Immigration Clinic is raising funds to support a second, full-time staff attorney. Our current attorney fellow’s position is set to expire at the end of this academic year, at which point the Clinic will have the director as the only attorney on staff. The Clinic cannot sustain this level of growth without continued funding for a second attorney. Click here to learn more about how to donate to the Clinic and about our attorney fellow’s work.
