Because people have no right to counsel as they navigate the complex immigration system, volunteers provide critical access to immigration justice. We mobilize more than 1000 legal professionals and handle more than 3000 cases throughout the Upper Midwest.

Volunteers have access to online training courses, practice guides, and expert mentors throughout the case.
