About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to achieve social justice and equity in partnership with farm workers and all low-wage workers and their families in rural communities through community, legislative and legal advocacy. Our vision is for all farm workers and their families to be treated with dignity and respect. CRLAF's goal is to help the rural poor improve their economic, social and political conditions and become more civically engaged in their communities. Our capacity to serve our communities comes from our organization's deep roots in, and longstanding institutional ties to, the largely rural, Latino and low-income communities where we work.
About
Citizenship and Immigration Project:The Citizenship and Immigration Project provides community education and outreach, advocacy, training, legal and technical assistance in the more marginalized immigrant communities throughout rural California, reaching more than 10,000 people in 2018/19. The Project provides outreach, information, and expands community capacity to conduct outreach. Attorneys provide training to community advocates (including school districts, community colleges, and other CBOs) on immigration and naturalization law, offer free immigration consultations to community members about their available immigration relief and constitutional rights, and provide pro bono direct legal assistance to immigrant communities with affirmative applications for relief, such as applying for citizenship, VAWA, T visas, U visas, family-based applications for relief, and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.Removal Defense Project:The Removal Defense Project of the Immigration Unit provides full-scope, pro bono representation to community members before the local Immigration Courts. The Project works closely with Northern California collaboratives to strategically coordinate services across the region in an effort to increase representation for as many community members as possible. The work includes providing immigration consultations to detained and non-detained community members, preparation of relief applications, representing community members in court, and engaging in negotiations with immigration officials. Attorneys provide direct legal representation in court for those seeking defensive applications for relief such as VAWA Cancellation of Removal, Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) Cancellation of Removal, Non-LPR Cancellation of Removal, Special Immigration Juvenile Status (SIJS), Asylum, Withholding of Removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture.San Joaquin Immigrant Empowerment Project:The San Joaquin Immigrant Empowerment Project focuses on serving immigrant communities in San Joaquin and Stanislaus Counties and connecting the limited resources available in this region to expand local capacity to serve community members in need of immigration legal services. The Project engages in local capacity building through participation in local legal and activist networks to strengthen local policies and strategically coordinate the provision of legal services. Attorneys and volunteers offer trainings, outreach and education, direct legal representation both in affirmative applications for immigration relief as well as in defensive applications for relief.
