As an immigration law firm, we understand all too well the unique challenges that unaccompanied and separated immigrant children face while in deportation proceedings. These children are in custody and have endured a harrowing past and journey before getting to the United States. The Young Center is their sentinel and their champion, ensuring their best interests and safety. It is our honor to support the work of an organization that fights for the most vulnerable immigrants in our care. -Beata Leja Partner Minsky McCormick & Hallagan, P.C.
The Young Center works with the most vulnerable unaccompanied and separated immigrant children in federal custody, so their voices are heard, and their best interests are protected. We also advocate for an immigration system that treats children as children. To learn more about work, visit theyoungcenter.org or follow us on social media. Click here to donate.
