National Immigration Project of the National Lawyers Guild

Who We Are

The National Immigration Project is a national non-profit that provides legal assistance and technical support to immigrant communities, legal practitioners, and advocates working to advance the rights of noncitizens. We seek to promote justice and equality of treatment in all areas of immigration law, the criminal justice system, and social policies related to immigration. For nearly forty years, the National Immigration Project has served as a progressive source of advocacy-oriented legal support on issues critical to immigrant rights.

The National Immigration Project works to protect the rights of the most disenfranchised and vulnerable populations, including women who are victims of domestic violence, people with HIV/AIDS, children, and noncitizen criminal offenders. We develop cutting-edge strategies to respond to illegal immigration enforcement.

We work both independently and collaboratively with immigration advocacy organizations throughout the U.S. in order to educate and strengthen the capacity of immigration professionals while promoting public policy change through direct advocacy. Our work is built upon a foundation of committed members, whose support and contributions are integral to the success of the National Immigration Project.
