Mission Statement
NJCIC is a state-wide legal services and policy advocacy organization dedicated to empowering young immigrants. We provide holistic, youth-centered legal representation, drive systemic change to advance immigrant rights, and build community through collaboration and education.
Description
At the center of our mission is a holistic model developed to meet the needs and aspirations of immigrant children and youth, including the more than 35,000 unaccompanied children released to sponsors in New Jersey over the last decade. Across NJCIC’s programs spanning lawyering, advocacy, capacity-building and two-way community engagement, we meet young immigrants where they are, in their mother tongue, and with deep regard for their lived experience (in its totality) to address the highly intersectional challenges they face.
