Immigration Law & Justice - Michigan

Serve
Written By Lise Dehlbaek

Immigration Law & Justice - Michigan (ILJ-MI), formerly Justice for Our Neighbors (JFON), welcomes and supports low-income immigrants with free, immigration legal services, education, and advocacy.

For the last 13 years, Dearborn First UMC has hosted JFON legal clinics once a month in our church building. Since the start of pandemic, clinics have been held online.

Now, more than ever, referrals to important community resources are desperately needed. Clients are looking for employment, housing, bill relief, food and clothing distribution, and other assistance.

 

If you would like to volunteer as a foreign language translator, or have access to community resources, please contact Kirstin Karoub: kkaroub@gmail.com

or go to ILJMi.org or follow ILJ-Michigan on Facebook
