We The Action Volunteer,

Nearly 80,000 people have been evacuated from their homes in Afghanistan and have sought refuge in the United States. Now, many Afghan families and individuals are facing asylum deadlines critical to building a secure future here. In honor of World Refugee Day, The Welcome Legal Alliance and We The Action are hosting virtual legal clinics to help Afghan evacuees access critical pro bono legal services. Today is the last day to sign up.

Lawyers are a key resource in this fight and we are inviting lawyers from across the country to rise to the occasion to help meet the urgent legal needs of our Afghan allies. Each of the clinics featured below are single-day opportunities that include training and supervision. You do not need to have any immigration or asylum experience in order to help. 

Clinics are taking place all week long during the week of June 20th. Do you have between two and four hours available to help make a difference in the lives of families fleeing Afghanistan? Sign up for one of our projects below. 

If you’re not available to participate in one of the World Refugee Day Legal Clinics there are many more ways to help! Click the link here to see a full list of We The Action's immigration projects.
