Immigrant Rights Resources
Here are some links to organizations working with immigrants rights. I hope these will provide a basis for discussion. We have not vetted or examined these documents for accuracy or applicability but we believe the organizations to be reliable. Before using any information in these links, please consult legal counsel. Legal counsel can be found on the Legal Aid page.
If you would like a Community Action Guide with resources for actions you can take and resources for immigrant neighbors, download our COIN Action Guide.
