  • Asylee Information Toolkit

    Posted on September 30, 2013

    In recent years, more than 24,000 people from over 100 nations have been granted asylum in the United States. Asylees have often suffered from persecution in their country of origin, forced migration, detention in the United States, and the uncertainty of the asylum adjudication process. Most confront systemic and bureaucratic barriers to resettlement and integration, and need well-coordinated and prompt social services to ease their transition.

  • CLINIC Joins Amicus Brief in Support of Asylum Seekers at the Border, Al Otro Lado v. Wolf

    Posted on February 11, 2020

    CLINIC joined with 17 other organizations that serve asylum seekers to urge the Ninth Circuit to uphold a preliminary injunction in favor of asylum seekers affected by Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) so-called “metering” policy. “Metering” is a practice by which immigration officials artificially limit the number of asylum seekers who are physically permitted to access a port of entry and officially begin the asylum process. The brief shows how metering is not related to any real operational constraints faced by CBP, but rather is a practice motivated by animus toward asylum seekers designed as an arbitrary obstacle to seeking asylum in the United States.

Promoting the Dignity of Immigrants with Affordable Legal Expertise

As it has for more than 30 years, CLINIC will fight for the rights of immigrants. CLINIC trains legal representatives who provide high-quality and affordable immigration legal services. We develop and sustain a network of nonprofit programs that serve close to 500,000 immigrants every year. We cultivate projects that support and defend vulnerable immigrant populations by:

  • providing direct representation for asylum seekers at the U.S.-Mexico border and educating them about their rights; 
  • reuniting formerly separated families;
  • increasing legal representation for those in removal proceedings and in detention;
  • providing public education on immigration law and policies; and
  • advocating for fair and just immigration policies that acknowledge the inherent dignity and value of all people.  

History has taught us that people who step up can make a difference. We hope you will join us.
