OVERVIEW
Each year refugees and immigrants come to the United States to seek a better life and/or protection from persecution in their home country. To help them build their lives in the United States, USCRI offers humanitarian-based pro-bono and low-bono legal services for these refugees and immigrants by providing competent and comprehensive immigration legal services through various programs.
In Colchester, Vermont, one such program is providing pro bono legal services to refugees and immigrants who need assistance applying for legal status in the US. USCRI seeks to hire a Legal Assistant to contribute to the activities of the program by providing direct technical assistance and support to the Staff Attorney in Vermont.
