Pro Bono Attorney Training on Special Immigrant Juvenile Status

Special Immigrant Juvenile Status: A Practical Training for Attorneys

Friday, June 26, 8:30 am - 12:00 pm, presented virtually via Zoom.

Are you a Colorado family law attorney interested in helping immigrant children who have experienced abuse, neglect, or abandonment? Or are you an attorney interested in learning how to expand your practice to help children in their immigration cases? If so, we hope that you will consider joining the Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network (RMIAN) for an upcoming virtual CLE. Learn about Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS), the process of getting the required SIJS order in custody and guardianship proceedings in Colorado, and the process to pursue this unique pathway to lawful permanent residence. Practical advice and template orders will be provided. The first part of the training (starting at 8:30 am) will cover Colorado state court proceedings and the second part (starting at 10:30 am) will cover representation of youth before US Citizenship and Immigration Services and the immigration court. Participants are welcome to join either or both sessions.

*Free training for anyone who agrees to take a pro bono case from RMIAN within one year.  CLE accreditation pending.
