Join the Affiliate Network

CLINIC’s affiliate network represents the vibrant diversity of local groups defending immigrants and facilitating their integration. Our affiliates include libraries, affordable housing nonprofits, refugee service organizations, domestic violence survivor assistance programs, labor unions, and more. Affiliate agencies provide authorized immigration legal representation from attorneys and/or Department of Justice (DOJ) accredited representatives at the partial or full level. While hundreds of attorneys work in the network, the majority of staff are accredited representatives. Staff range in their years of legal experience, areas of expertise and non-English language options. Many are immigrants themselves. These individuals provide the bulk of the direct, charitable legal services to communities across the country.

How We Can Help

We offer services on a yearly basis to Catholic members and non-Catholic subscribers, who make up our affiliate network of non-profit legal services providers. Non-profit organizations that offer services to low-income and vulnerable immigrants are welcome to join CLINIC's affiliate network as a member or subscriber. CLINIC affiliates benefit from access to an array of services including extensive training and technical support on immigration program management and immigration law practice. If you have questions about an existing resource, a training, or joining the CLINIC Network, please submit it via the Information Request Form.

Read CLINIC's Preparing to Manage an Immigration Legal Services Program to review the considerations a non-profit might make when contemplating opening an immigration legal services program. This is particularly recommended for those agencies interested in CLINIC affiliation who do not currently either employ immigration attorneys or have DOJ Recognition and Accreditation.
