Introducing Justicia Lab!

The Immigration Advocates Network has always served two roles. We have been a hub for advocate resources and a space for collaboration and the development of immigrant legal tech initiatives like Citizenshipworks, Immi, Immigration Law Help, and ¡Reclamo!. We recently created the Justicia Lab brand to more clearly delineate the work of the Immigration Advocates Network website and our role as a launchpad for immigration legal tech initiatives.

See our announcement here.
 

While our name is changing, the Immigration Advocates Network website will remain a hub for advocate resources in place and our Citizenshipworks, Immi, and Immigration Law Help tools will continue to support and serve our partners as usual - albeit with a new look and feel.

Check out our new website and reach let us know if you’d like to bring any of our nonprofit, immigrant legal tools to your organization!

Citizenshipworks at #NIICC2022 & #CC4Citizenship

This week, our Citizenshipworks team joined national immigrant advocates from around the country for the 15th Annual National Immigrant Integration Conference and Cities & Counties for Citizenship Convening. We shared innovative new strategies to deliver naturalization services at scale and learned from local and state partners about their technology and justice needs.
