LAW 537 - Citizenship and Immigration Program.

The Citizenship and Immigration Program provides direct representation to immigrants in south and central Virginia who cannot afford the services of private attorneys, with a particular emphasis on vulnerable populations. Specifically, we work with unaccompanied minors, victims of domestic violence, and refugees to obtain immigration benefits that allow them to fully pursue their lives in the United States. There is a contemporaneous class component with required attendance. Permission of the instructor is required; limited enrollment. A student enrolled in this course may not simultaneously participate in another clinical or externship program.Five hours.Haas
