Legal aid for a child
US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants
Problem
Thousands of children enter the U.S. every year, without an adult or legal status. Coming from 30 different countries worldwide, they have experienced such horrors as trafficking, persecution, or domestic violence. These children quickly find themselves in the court system often without any representation, assistance or resources
The Gift
A sustaining gift of $90 a month will provide a full intake screening, thorough needs assessment, brief legal advice, health and social service referrals, and a trained pro bono attorney for one child.
