• National Immigration Legal Services Directory

  The National Immigration Legal Services Directory is a new interactive online directory of over 900 nonprofit immigration legal services providers in all 50 states. The National Immigration Legal Services Directory was designed to help make legal referrals as simple and straightforward as possible. There are three ways for users to find programs: state, county, or detention facility. Once a user has selected one of these options, they can further refine their search by areas of legal and non-legal assistance, types of services provided, populations served, and languages spoken. Users also have the ability to view search results on an interactive map, generate a custom PDF, email or print-friendly page of search results, and send an email with a link to a specific organization.
