Defend. Empower. Advocate.

We are calling on all experts, change-makers, and fearless defenders to work with RAICES and advocate for our immigrant, refugee, and asylum-seeking community.

At RAICES, we are operating on the national frontlines of the fight for immigration rights because we believe in a country where everyone has access to legal and social services — no matter where you come from.

Through our extended network of attorneys, case workers, and volunteers, RAICES strengthens communities nationwide by empowering thousands of families to plant roots in the U.S.
