Special Immigrant Juvenile Status - Representing Immigrant Children

  • The Pro Bono Project 935 Gravier Street, Ste. 1340 New Orleans United States (map)

Want to learn how you can help immigrant children in need? The Pro Bono Project is proud to partner with Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans to offer this free, virtual 3-hour CLE seminar, including one hour of Ethics.

Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) classification provides immigrant children who have been subject to state juvenile court proceedings related to abuse, neglect, abandonment, or a similar basis under state law the ability to seek lawful permanent residence in the United States.

While attendance is free, we ask that participants agree to accept representation in a pro bono special immigrant juvenile status case -- we will circulate a case list at the training.

If you are new to immigration law, don’t worry – we can connect you with a case and all the support you may need. This is a great way to gain experience while helping some of the most vulnerable people in our community.
