Immigrant Legal Resource Center

Description

The Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC) is a non-profit national resource center that provides legal trainings, educational materials, and advocacy to advance immigrant rights. Founded in 1979, the mission of the ILRC is to work with and educate immigrants, community organizations, and the legal sector to continue to build a democratic society that values diversity and the rights of all people. ILRC attorneys are nationally recognized experts in the fast-changing field of immigration law, and constantly keep abreast of changes in the law, so that we can keep our constituents up to date.

We support the immigration legal field and advocates with a wide range of resources from live seminars and webinars on a range of immigration-related topics to reference manuals on immigration law

The ILRC also assists and trains directly impacted communities to understand immigration law and the democratic process in the United States, enabling them to advocate for fair policies in immigration, civil rights, consumer fraud, healthcare, community safety, and other issues that impact their daily lives.

The ILRC advocates for changes in social systems, public perception, and immigration law that recognize the contributions immigrants make to our society, respects their dignity, and ensures a fairer and more just immigration system.
