The National Immigrant Justice Center (NIJC) is looking for legal volunteers, attorneys and law students, for community-based clinics that screen Chicago residents for immigration relief. Volunteers are invited to participate at either of two locations in Chicago. NIJC will pair with local community partners to schedule pre-set appointments with immigrants. Volunteers will be expected to conduct 1-2 intakes per clinic and interpreters will be available to assist if needed.
Volunteers are required to participate in a training on how to conduct legal screenings for immigration relief. Training will be live and via webinar on Thursday, February 13, 2020 from 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. at NIJC, 224 S. Michigan Ave. Ste 600, Chicago, IL 60604. A recording will later be posted for additional viewing. While the training will be webcast, CLE is available for in-person attendance at the training only.
This is a one-time volunteer opportunity; attorneys will not be expected to represent any client for whom they conduct a screening.
Registration is required to volunteer at the clinic and attend the training. By signing up, you commit to attending both the training (which may be done via webcast) and the legal clinic.
