Immigrant Rights Law Clinic

Catalog description

Students in the Immigrant Rights Law Clinic represent detainees, migrant workers, children and other immigrants with critical legal needs working through the U.S. Immigration system. Working alongside licensed attorneys, students work on behalf of clients and community groups in a variety of settings --immigration agencies and courts, state and federal courts, as well as workshops in detention centers and/or community centers. The Clinic must be taken in conjunction with Immigrant Rights Seminar. The Clinic is a full-year clinic only, with 3 credits awarded in the fall and 3 awarded credits in the spring.
